Equirectangular

 Lately I have been fascinated again by equirectangular perspective. I played with such things maybe 8 or so years ago and then recently followed people like Paul Heaston and his blig and took a renewed fascination. This was the first of a series that began on November 26th after returning from Muncie Indiana.

 

 

I like the idea at least if not capturing 360 degrees, at least capturing 270 degrees, which would for example capture one two side walls and a wall in front. In this case above, the west window, the north window and the east wall are captured.

 

You can see as I drew off in the left corner the wave patterns that the perspective points make from west to east and north to south as three dimensional space is represented flatly in two dimensions.
