Spherical Panoramas & Travel: Holland
Spherical panoramas display both interior and exterior places incredibly. I have traveled to a place or two in the world and have always enjoyed taking my camera along to produce spherical panoramas. This type of photography requires a mid to high-level quality camera to capture as much detail as possible.
We flew from Utah to Amsterdam, the Netherlands, back in May of 2011. Places that we saw included the cities of Utrecht, Rotterdam and Amsterdam. Interestingly, each city has different things to offer in terms of architecture and culture and whenever I was given an opportunity I shot a high quality spherical panorama using a better quality camera with a fish-eye lens.
To those unfamiliar with the Netherlands, the country is located on the west side of Europe and borders Germany to the east. Known for its windmills and "dodgy girls," Holland's landscape is stunning and very much worthy of all kinds of photography, including the shooting of a spherical panorama. Those that are into cycling will very much enjoy this territory, as steep elevations are nowhere to be found.
We stayed and traveled through Holland for a period of about 2 weeks. One of my favorite constructions we visited was the Old Church in the city of Delft, not too far from Rotterdam. The Old Church is literal translation of the Dutch name Oude Kerk, the official name of the church. The church's tower reaches an altitude of 200 plus feet and is located near a church called the New Church, only located a few 100 yards from the Oude Kerk.
Delft is located in between to bigger cities: Rotterdam and The Hague. The Hague is home to the Dutch government and the International Court. Further north one will find the city of Leiden, which is also located in the Dutch province of South Holland, in Dutch "Zuid-Holland." Interestingly, the city of Delft was home to famous painter Vermeer, who was buried inside the Old Church. I shot spherical panoramas throughout the city and look forward to publishing these soon.
We very much enjoyed our recent trip to the Netherlands and hope to enjoy a similar journey to some of the other countries in Europe, including France and Spain. One of my next cities to see and shoot is the city of Barcelona.
What always has fascinated me is the uniqueness in culture and such that these countries have to offer. Europe is a wonderful destination to those seeking adventures of all kinds, including the shooting of spherical panoramas and such.
