England, Walmer – December 2024
The panoramic mode on the iPhone is not a favorite setting for me. On Instagram you get bombarded by adds about all Apple did not tell you about taking photos on iPhone: some work, eg using panorama setting for a wider angle (the fun for me using an iPhone is to be curious about all you can do finding it out for yourself).
But making a panorama having a straight line in front of you (a road eg) is hilarious. What would a sky panorama look like? So I did a 360 sky and a 180 horizon of the sea front at Walmer. Just for fun.

Some photos do not fit the LAPC’s themes, so there is a rest category ‘last chance’ being #280. I never am guided by the themes in the photos I shoot. Some fit in, some don’t. But I never know the theme while shooting. I’m privileged to live in a country with lots of flowers, having fresh ones weekly in the house.

Flowers are colorful but sometimes more color is added artificially. The lens artists photo challenge #279 is ‘magical’.

Two days ago I published a detail of the ceiling at Westfield Mall of the Netherlands in color. This is the monochrome version of the same image, in my opinion even more magical than the color version. In the feedback some wondered how this structure can be a ceiling. Here is an earlier publication showing the top light window in the ceiling in mono.
