Yes, this is a forgotten one back from september 2008. The theme was ‘color’, I shot this that time but couldn’t manage to stitch it in time…

…until yesterday when I found a folder with several unstitched panorama sources. I cannot stitch it back then, as I laid in bed with high fever and bad flu. This is what you see in this picture also. I shot this panorama with the help of my girlfriend who took care of me as I was sick. I hoped that I can get better in time to stitch this, but alas the time was up for submit for the color event. So this was left unstitched until now.

And how it connects to the theme ‘color’? I only left the salt lamp in the scene lit, so it painted everything orange. And – as you can see – where no light could fall, there is no color at all. This means, color makes sense only if there’s light in the scene. Without a light source there’s no color. I often dreamed about a panorama with very low light conditions, I wanted to get a feeling of everything levitates in a black space, and only some important things get lit. This is similar to my first WWP panorama, which was shot in the same room. Back then, I didn’t have that dormer window.

So, get ready for some old stuff, which comes in the next days/weeks!
