Hi Andrey
What a unique composition you present to us ! I really like this
Panorama. The technique behind must be complex isn't it? Well
done. Regards

Hi Andrey,
what for a weird pic! I have experimented with photo stiching myself too, but I didn㦙 expect, that such a result is possible. Did you use a special tripod for panorama shots?
I must say that I have got bored by the countless postings of the Meteora Rocks long time ago. In contrast your artificial, surrealistic approach is really refreshing and unique. I like it a lot. I guess, the bigger sized original version of this photo must be much more impressive.

Andreas

That's interesting. How many shots are stitched to get this..I see you've used a Russian Peleng 8mm, but still..it doesn't make a 360..so I wondered how many are used here. The quality is very good..and it's something different for once, I like it. Good sharpness and lovely sky around Meteora's Earth. Very good POV for such a photo, so it seems. Was it a 'scary' /high POV?
Regards,
Emiel

What is most impressive about this photograph is that it does not have a million comments under it. This is literaly a unique image, and I would have expected people to at least pay it some attention, if not praise it. I for one have never come across this technique before and I must say I am stunned. I love the outcome, it is aesthetically and technically amazing, perfect stitching. Hats off!
Cheers, Ioanna

What a completely original and interesting photograph of this site. It really is impressive, and the lighting is very nice. You have a good blue sky, and you can see the mountains in the distance. Well-done.
