Planet Panoramas
These Photos are just brilliant. All Shot by Sam Rohn.
Not much else I can say about them... except they look amazing!
Planet Panoramas utilize Stereographic Projection to map spherical panoramas.This results in interesting effects: the area close to the point opposite to the center of projection becomes significantly enlarged, resulting in an effect known as little planet (when the center of projection is the nadir) and tube (when the center of projection is the zenith).
Here are some amazing Planet Panoramas of famous places around the world.
