Idea inspired by (stolen from) LutzP: www.ipernity.com/doc/lutzp/41025950

Setting inspired by Philippe Halsman: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philippe_Halsman

This is also my contribution for The Sunday Challenge "Something which grows, and using on-camera-effects only". On Panasonic Lumix TZ60 camera there is an on camera panorama stitch software, which I used here. Moreover, one can use artistic on camera software effects. Here I used "expressive" effect, which enhances the colours.

The idea is to emphasize "organic nature" of the literature and science. Therefore I turned the camera also horizontally, while moving the camera during the exposures taken for the vertical panorama image. And rich colours because the literature and science are colourful! Especially scientific literature is like a slow motion growth of human communication and knowledge. Unfortunately that scientific growth can turn out to be even too slow, and we fail to do the critical change: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Limits_to_Growth

Au Cœur... diagonalhorizon, Xata, Nora Caracci, .t.a.o.n. and 23 other people have particularly liked this photo

You did all this in your camera, Sami?

This is very cool and the music goes quite well with it.

Sami Serola (inactiv… club has replied to Karen's Place club
Thank you Karen =) Yes, the panorama stitch and enhanced colours effect are on camera.

BUT, do notice the "dramatic" light ;-) From masters of photography like Philippe Halsman we can learn much about how to build the setting or choose the point of view even before shooting.

Cheers! =) With older camera phones I used to do tricks like this:
serola.wordpress.com/2010/04/22/twist-and-shake-your-phone

Real cameras and new camera phones has way too fast and supposedly different shutter for that. But the built in panorama can be used creatively like here, and also twist the camera while turning it.

Another funny trick is to shoot the panorama through the widow of moving train. This may work at least with some mobile phones. What you get is very very long panorama =D

An example of a panorama shot taken from a moving train with Samsung Android phone:
