GISS 2008 – Introduction To Panoramic Photography
This panorama was made as a demonstration of how to make
a spherical panorama with a panoramic head. You can see me at
the podium, I gave this lecture about panoramics for this little group.

I’ve jittered a little bit, because I usually don’t speak english.
Fortunately this was gone at the first 5 minutes, and I realized
that those 2 years reading english technician papers and scientific
materials helps me a lot.
For the lecture I’ve prepared everyhting, but one thing. The fact,
that you can see me at the podium in this panorama, is due to the
photographs taken by my girlfriend and assistant Eszter Kallai. I’ve
forgotten namely about the picture from myself.
A kind guy called Suchin has asked me at the end of the lecture:
“What if I forget to take a picture, or something went wrong with stitching?”
Suddenly I couldn’t respond with a good enough answer, I’ve just thrown back:
“Photoshop can make magic!”
After that a small laugh went trough the room, but I meant it as I said.
You can see it, I inserted a picture with a completely different viewpoint,
and it is almost undetectable. If you see long enough this picture,
you will have a feeling that there’s something wrong with that backpack
at the table, and as if I am a little larger as I used to. By the way, later
I gave a second answer for that question too. If the scenery has a lot of
moving stuff, I used to do 2- or 3 sets of pictures to assure the perfect stitch.
Just stay tuned, the other pictures will coming!
