Panoramic photography, including the capturing of a spherical panorama, can offer wonderful challenge. I have yet to experience a session where people will actually leave me alone when capturing spherical panoramas. My next trip will likely take me to different countries in Europe, including the nation of Germany.

At times people tend to confuse Germany for the Netherlands and vise versa. The Federal Republic is located in the west of Europe and border Holland to the east. The country of Denmark is located to the north and Poland to the east. Also, the North Sea is located to the north. These days, the republic counts a good eighty million inhabitants, most of which are located or reside in bigger cities such as Berlin and Frankfurt.

This republic offers wonderful scenery to shoot in terms of spherical panoramas and such, including the capital city of Berlin. Germany is considered of the substantial political powers in Europe and an international technological leader in fields of all kinds, including the automobile industry.

Unlike traditional panoramas, spherical panoramas can offer great detail to viewers. Displayed or listed on websites of all kinds, this type of photography requires more than just a point-and-shoot camera. Personally, I have been using a higher end Nikon SLR camera with a good fish-eye lens.

Following World War 2 and after the surrender of the Republic, the Allies divided the remaining territory of Germany into 4 military areas including the capital city of Berlin. The zones located in the west were merged in '49 and called the Federal Republic of Germany. The other zone, which was controlled by the Soviet Union, became the German Democratic Republic. Reunification occurred a few decades later, in 1990.

Those interested in shooting spherical panoramas, consider surfing over to 3d-exposure dot com for more information on what equipment to use as well as to view high quality full-screen panoramas of places and sites around the world, including the United States of America.
