The eyes can only see so much when looking straight ahead, similarly, such is the case with most camera shots; the field of view is relatively narrow. But people tend to look around to take in an entire wonderful scene and that is what I'm recreating with my panoramic images. It's a wider field of view but without loosing the clarity in the image. Most of my images are made from combining a horizontal series of photos, a typical panoramic view such as Boathouse Row in Philadelphia. Some images are vertically aligned as is this Statue of Liberty in Las Vegas, and some of the images are created by using both rows and columns of photos together as seen in Machu Picchu.
