As
an architect I have always been interested in
panoramic
photography because it provides a very special way of looking at space.
Before the rise of computer graphics, it was not possible to
experiment beyond the limits of printable media, but
now that
limit is gone! Virtual panoramas have evolved to become an artform
where the viewer (you) has the ability to control the point of view and
composition of the photograph.
The
goal of
this web site is to show the beauty of our island, Puerto
Rico, using 360° panoramic photography. The
site was created and is maintained by María (my daughter)
and myself. We will promote
the
use of panoramic photography in
architecture , nature studies and
commercial uses.
The site is simple and we strive to keep it simple. What we want is that you enjoy the views as much as we enjoyed taking the photographs. We would love to hear from you, just email us with your remarks, they will be truly appreciated.

This shifts the conventional photographic paradigm where the photographer was the master of a single point of view. By being able to look in every direction , the dimension of space is added to the photograph in a way that was not possible before. * We have posted a small group of "cylindrical" panoramas in our 360° x 30° gallery! It's a collection of pano-photographs called "Imágenes y Momentos de Mi Viejo San Juan" . * Visit our City Plazas. We started with Plaza Palmer in Caguas but the list will grow! check them out at our 360° x 30° gallery! ![]() (c) 2006 PanoramaBoricua - by María Pontón and Antonio Pontón |
