Would like to see you re-create the effect Pakimo cause I have tried several different methods and none have produced this crisp clear circler definition mate.

Sure, I can have a try, not adding serious work into it, but simple test to try it. Haven't tried it before either, so can be intresting. Half an hour and I see what I get.

Probably terrible, but fun for the test of it.

Wasn't easy finding good panoramas for this, so took a bit longer than expected. Well, anyways, did a quick test. And didn't bother to add a second circle inside with example trees. Oh, and I know shadows and stuff are terrible, but was just a test

Here's my lame effort:

Looks like it would take a fair amount of tinkering to get the correct aspect ratio to minimize distortion. Building panoramas by splicing mirrored images seems a possible alternative to taking or finding panoramic shots. That's what I did here, but with only one splice.

Inverted loops are a little bit more difficult to achieve.
