Lens-Artists Challenge #373: Looking Back to Challenge #31 – Landscapes

It's Egídio's turn to host the Challenge this week, and it's another 'Looking Back' Challenge. In a post on his blog, Capturing My World Through Brazilian Eyes, Egídio says, (https://throughbrazilianeyes.com/lens-artists-challenge-373-looking-back-at-lac-31-landscapes/) 'when we began the Looking Back series, I was excited about the prospect of revisiting some previous challenges I had missed.' He chose 'Landscapes' as the theme for the Challenge this week, revisiting Amy's (of The World Is a Book) Theme (https://shareandconnect.wordpress.com/2019/02/02/lens-artists-photo-challenge-31-landscape/) from 2019.

A few years ago I picked up a DJI Pocket 2, a small digital camera on a gimbal that was great for moving videos, not that I ever used it much for that purpose. What I did have great fun with, though, was the panorama mode. I would set the camera on a tripod, press the record button and it would create a lovely 180° panorama. The Pocket 2 went with me all over the place; in Aveiro,  the woods behind our house, and down to the beach at Barra. Nowadays, I still like panoramas, but I'm more likely to use a film camera, like the Horizon 202 or the 1920s Kodak 3-A folding camera.
