Assignment 8: Portraiture and Light

Matt Bush: The Stanford Bubble

Using a tripod, I shot a series of portrait-oriented shots from the walkway between the Quad and Oval to create a 360-degree panorama. Then I took additional shots of the ground and the sky to use as filler. With my Photoshop panorama, I edited out stitching artifacts, used Polar Coordinates to create a spherical worlds, and added in the ground in the center and the sky. I then used Curves, Contrast, Vibrance and Unsharp Mask to enhance the composition.
