Photographic association celebrates 20 years of panoramic photography
For over 100 years photographers have been shooting panoramic photographs. The International Association of Panoramic Photographers will celebrate 20 years of educating members and the public about panoramic photography during their international convention in Monterey, CA.
(PRWEB) January 8, 2004 --The International Association of Panoramic Photographers (IAPP) will celebrate 20 years of educating members and the public about panoramic photography during our international convention in Monterey, CA, April 27-May 2, 2004. The California coast will provide a spectacular backdrop for this unique event, open to US and international professional and amateur photographers.
For over a hundred years photographers have been shooting landscape and group panoramic photographs with old wooden wind up cameras which groaned and squeaked, pulling large pieces of film through the camera to produce long wide view photographs. Today new electronic panoramic cameras use standard films and computer tracking systems. Digital cameras and computerization has also greatly changed the way we make panoramic pictures. Today IAPP caters to both the traditional and digital panoramic photographer.
Our Monterey, CA. convention will focus on new technologies such as stitching images together in the computer, Photoshop, producing virtual images as well as the traditional methods of panoramic imaging. You can learn more about this event at www.panoramicassociation.org
The International Association of Panoramic Photographers was established in April 1984. IAPP has been providing continuous service to its members and become the clearing house for panoramic creativity and technical information. Panorama Magazine is published twice a year, conventions are held every eighteen months and our website keeps the members abreast of the latest news.
