Dr. Ronald Williams, a retired research professor at University of California, Santa Barbara, and an avid photographer, took the photos below during a recent visit to the Thomas Aquinas ý campus. “Lately I have been doing panoramas of landscapes — that is, I take multiple pictures and then stitch them together using software,” he explains. However, for his photos of the campus, he added an innovative twist: “Instead of using a normal lens and stitching five or six pictures together, I used a fisheye lens, and stitched together four or five.”

The result is stunning photographs that do not capture a single view or scene from campus, but bring together several in one image. Similar to the 360° Tour Virtual Tours that the ý offers on its website, these photos “take three dimensions and put them into two.” The ý thanks Dr. Williams for his permission to repost his photographs, more of which are available via his .
