Project 1 "Little Planets"

So this was originally going to be a one week project, but I came to realize it takes a lot more time than I thought so i;d make it two weeks. I decided to do this because it is something new in photoshop that I haven't done before, and they are really sweet looking. I'd love to get some better ones and will continue doing these whenever I get the chance
Anywayssss... I saw this idea last semester, and wanted to do it but never fully got around to it.

^^That is a link for the tutorial I used
Basically, I took a few 360 panorama pictures, squished them down to a square, and added the polar coordinates filter, and it made these.

for the first one I did, I thought I'd try something different and do an indoor panorama
it didn't quite work out as cool as I thought it would :/



At first, I couldn't quite figure out why this one didn't quite look right, until I looked at one's made by other people and realized that most of them have the sky in them.




So i tried again
I think this one turned out pretty good. It is of a park, you can kind of see the monkey bars and swings




This one is my favorite over all. After a lot of trial and errors I finally got a good one here.
