A creative photographer used ancient and mythical rocks as the basis of a 360-degree "stellar flower" image that shows the passage of day into night and the setting of Venus and the Moon.
If you're looking for a neat idea to try when it comes to astrophotography, how about creating a "little planet" photo of the Milky Way from where you live in the world? This beautiful photo was created by photographer Aditya Kinjawadekar.
Here's a different perspective of the Great American Eclipse by photographer Stephane Vetter. It's a "little planet" photo that beautifully combines the solar eclipse with star trails.
When a total solar eclipse occurred back on March 20, 2015, photographer György Soponyai decided to capture it in a creative way. He shot a series of photos of the sun traveling across the sky above Norway, and then stitched the images together into the above "little planet" photo of the sun being eclipsed.
Red Bull is known for its clever advertising and incredible collection of sponsored adrenaline junkies.

Dubai 360, a website that will soon allow you to explore the city of Dubai using 4K interactive 360º views, has released the first teaser of what’s to come.

Estonian photographer Andrew Bodrov of 360Pano has been shooting panoramic photographs for over a decade in countries around the world. His work even spans planets: last year he released an interactive panorama created using photos shot on Mars.

If you enjoy your adrenaline mixed with a little bit of nausea, the above video is probably right up your alley.
Created by photographer Ignacio Ferrando, the video was made by rigging together six GoPro cameras then using the video-stitching software VideoStitch to produce a stomach-turning adventure: a little planet-style roller coaster ride.
We've seen how impressive footage shot with a drone and just one GoPro can be, but that's child's play compared to the band Booka Shade's most recent music video shoot. Employing the services of the drone cinematographers at Octofilms, they slapped 8 GoPros onto a drone to capture some psychedelic 'Little Planet' style imagery.
We've shared examples of stereographic projection (AKA "little planet") photography here before, but none quite like these. Sydney-based visual artist Catherine Nelson creates some of the most amazing "planets" we've seen by stitching together hundreds of individual photographs. Trained as a painter and having worked on feature films like Moulin Rouge and Harry Potter, she uses her visual effects expertise to combine the images in creative and surreal ways.
Swedish photographer Göran Strand created this amazing "little planet" photo (AKA a stereographic projection) that shows the Aurora Borealis overhead. He titled it "Planet Aurora".
