Hello, I am Moti Pinhassi, an urban and regional planner from Netanya. For many years, I have been active in the field of sustainable transportation and engaged in fascinating and diverse transportation issues. In addition, I am also a photographic artist creating spectacular handmade panoramas. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

For over 25 years, I have been creating handmade panoramas, without the use of Photoshop or other digital means. Each panorama is composed of individual printed images, which are manually cut and glued to create a large collage. The result is unique, interesting, and spectacular panoramic images, displaying a 360-degree view with a straight horizon in a single glance, something that cannot be seen with the eye. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Over the years, I have created hundreds of panoramas with a wide variety of landscapes of different types \u2013 Sea, urban, nature, desert, night, winter, sunsets, and more \u2013 from all over the country and also a little from abroad. The images can be ordered in any size and are suitable for any office or home. The images are printed on high-quality photographic paper, and at the end of the process, the panorama is laminated in an oven to preserve it and allow cleaning with a damp cloth. <\/span><\/p>

I am committed to providing excellent service and creating photos that fit the client’s needs and requests, according to the desired atmosphere. The spectacular panoramas manage to convey a sense of space and beauty in every space in which they are placed, and every panorama I create is a unique work of art suitable for anyone who appreciates art and quality photography. <\/p>

So far, briefly… More questions? Please: <\/p>

The location:<\/strong> Most importantly, location, location, location. I love places that go outside the box of the normal landscape we see every day. Whether it’s up high – the top of a tower<\/a>, to the side – a pier<\/a>, or some other kind of observation point.
When I arrive at a place, I look and see where the view is open, which element I would like to be in the center of the panorama, and which element I would like to be on the sides of the panorama – and when it comes to 360 degrees, it will appear twice. <\/p>

The photography:<\/strong> I usually turn 360 degrees myself at the same point, taking pictures with overlaps of about a third to half a picture, also taking care of pictures that will complete the background (sky, ground). Sometimes, if it is a wide roof, I turn around the perimeter of the building or place.
I like to photograph pleasant things for the panorama, such as birds, buses, boats, and also people. And it’s especially nice that when they move, they appear in the panorama several times. Sometimes I do this intentionally in advance when shooting, and sometimes I only discover it when I assemble the panorama.
Besides the panorama photos, I’m also taking some interesting photos, to add at the end of the post.<\/p>

\"My<\/a>

My Work Tools<\/p><\/div>

Connecting the images:<\/strong> My studio is the house, specifically the dining table that I expand as if preparing for Passover \ud83d\ude06 I scatter all the individual images on the table, placing each one in its area. There are many images for each area, and I find the image that is most suitable or interesting for the area and connect its neighbors to it. If necessary, I cut with scissors or cut with a utility knife. I glue the images to each other with small double-sided adhesive stickers.
An average panorama consists of twenty to thirty images, which are selected from fifty to a hundred images and sometimes more. The images that are not selected for the panorama are thrown into the recycling bin, but I save all the files. <\/p>

The whole process takes some good few hours. Here’s a video from a live broadcast I made on Facebook, don’t worry, it’s summarized for less then a minute: <\/p>
