University of Denver: Newman Center Panorama 1


The Robert and Julie Newman Center for the Performing Arts, seen from South University Boulevard, 28 May 2007. When panoramas are shot at a 45-degree angle, there is less "bowing" or bending of lines caused by lens distortion.

University of Denver: Newman Center Panorama 2


A panoramic view of the Robert and Julie Newman Center for the Performing Arts, located at the intersection of South University Boulevard and East Iliff Avenue, on the southeast corner of the DU campus. Photographed the morning of 28 May 2007, this image is composed of seven separate photographs. Even with some software correction for a 50mm lens, a fish-eye effect is very clearly visible. The more advanced (and expensive) versions of panorama "stitching" software can correct distortion and straighten the lines to a more natural perspective.
