Portraiture Top: Panorama photo taken with a special technique to make it seem as if Abby Jans ‘17 was in the 3 places at once. While in reality, I just took the panorama and once she went out of frame, I had her run behind the camrea into a space that soon would become into the frame then I continued the shot to finish this naturally edited picture. Bottom right: Abby literally chilling in a tree due to cold temperatures.
