Look Around

From the blog of Gerco de Ruijter

In order to create a virtual panorama I am using a 180 degree fish-eye lens on a digital camera. I take one shot down from the kite and an other shot from the sky while standing on the ground. Sky and landscape are combined to create the 360 degree “bubble” panorama.

This one down was made at the border of the Oosterschelde near Schelphoek. The transparency and sunreflections on the water makes it look like a glass marble.

002 Schelphoek Oost

Here is an other marble in the Oosterschelde chain. This one was made on the east side of Schelphoek.
I will try to connect all these bubbles and cover the Oosterschelde dike from Bruinisse up to Westenschouwen.

001 Heerenkeet

Here we are at de “Heerenkeet”, one step closer to Zierikzee. I like the lay-out of the harbour in this image: it looks like it is hugging the sea.

004 Plompe Toren

Here we are at de Plompe Toren, the remnants of the Koudekerke city church, west of Schelphoek. There is a beautiful viewpoint (with telescope!) at the top of the church. For more information Plompe Toren.
