More on mini-worlds, or polar panoramas as they’re known. I’ve just found a flickr group for them.

These are wonderful images. I’ve tried making images like this, in fact there’s a MiniWorlds page on this site with my five.

I found the instructions in the 27 February 2009 edition of MacUser UK. In short, the instructions are:

Start with a panoramic image
In Photoshop, resize it to a square image (I’m using 5000×5000)
Invert the image [...]

I’ve added a page of mini-worlds, panoramic images wrapped into a circle, that I’ve created in Photoshop and used on my Picture of the Day site.
