Today,
I am talking about a cool site called GigaPan which hosts some
exceedingly beautiful photographic work of enormous proportion. The
images on this site create an immersive, high-resolution panoramic
experience. You can find an image and zoom in, from a photo of the
mountains to a man’s face as he stands across the valley. I am using
this technique to record our murals and create Zoë Design mural papers.
I
have several new additions to our line of scenic mural papers and I
have placed the gigapixel images at the gigapan website. Today I will
give you a quick lesson on navigating the site to get the most from the
imagery. After you have seen our murals, I know you will enjoy looking
around the site at the work of other talented artists. You can search by
name, content or category.
Google “garrabrants gigapan”
and click on any link starting with “gigapan”. From there, you can
scroll through my images, mostly of Lena and Brooke’s murals. Find one
you like and click on it. Or, better yet, go directly to our “Bella Donna Chionois”.
On the right, you will see your image navigation, zoom in and out, full
screen and zoom all the way out. I like to make it full screen,
preferably on a large monitor. On the bottom left are “snapshots”, this
is a good place to start, or just double click or use the + -
navigation tools to find your own favorite spot to zoom in to. If you
want to go back and pick a different image, click on my name (top left) .
Feel free to leave a comment below the description.
If these links are just too much, here are some pretty photos, with out the "bells and whistles". This mural paper has a repeat at about 27'.
