Tiny plants - The Wrekin - Final piece + Plan

What is a 'Tiny Planet'?

A tiny planet, or more professionally known as a Spherical Panorama, is a 360 degree image that uses a special post processing technique. It creates such a unique and special image with the final result.

Here is how you create a Spherical Panorama:










For this final piece, I plan to go to the Wrekin hill on the 12th of March to capture the necessary photographs. I've chosen the Wrekin as its not too far from home and the views I could capture would really work well with my tiny planets final piece. 

Below are some photos of the Wrekin itself from distance:



However, I will be using photographs from the top of the Wrekin only for my Tiny Planet image. Here are a couple of photos showing what sort of dense, detailed views I'll photograph:



I plan to capture photos sharing the same sort of views as these ones, then turn them into 'Tiny Planets'. I have been inspired by other artists who have created tiny planets through photoshop, such as this image by Benjamin Jopen:


Obviously this is done in an urban landscape, but it still represents the same concept and idea.

Here is an example which is more related to how mine will look by artist Alexander Tikki:
