The Earth is Round with the Horizon
written by reinertlee on May 12th, 2009 , 1 submission , 14 comments (11 votes)

What I like about my favourite camera, the Horizon Perfekt is that it not only gives you a panoramic view but also gives this curved/distorted touch to the photos. When I shoot i always try to tilt the camera a little bit instead of just aiming straight at the scene. By doing this I can confirm that landscapes and objects are a little bent. That’s the magic of the swinging lens – this way I too can prove that the world is indeed round!

    Great shots. I am trying to acquire a Horizon this very moment. Hopefully soon I will experience this first-hand.
