When Panoramic Photos Go Wrong

Panoramic photos are meant to capture stunning landscapes in one seamless shot. But when regular people try their hand at them, the results often look more like bizarre optical illusions than beautiful vistas.

What starts as an innocent attempt to photograph a scenic view can quickly turn into something unintentionally suggestive.

The problem occurs when subjects move while the camera is slowly panning across the scene. A person walking through the frame might end up with three arms or stretched legs in compromising positions.

Trees bend in unnatural ways, and buildings appear to melt into each other. Some of these accidental creations look so suggestive that you can’t help but see something naughty in what was meant to be a simple vacation photo.

While professional photographers carefully plan their panoramic shots, these amateur attempts prove that sometimes the funniest pictures happen completely by accident. The internet is full of these

unintentionally risqué panoramas that will make you look twice – and then laugh out loud at how innocent situations can turn into something completely different through the magic (or mayhem) of panoramic photography.
