[Little Planets] by Dan Arkle

These are the amazing panoramic photographs that look like little planets. They were taken by photographer Dan Arkle, 34, from Sheffield, UK. He said: [On a sharp summit, you feel literally on top of the world, with dramatic views in all directions, including straight down. I tried using conventional photography to capture this feeling, but even with a wide angle lens I couldnt get all the view in the image].

![[Monte Rosa – Switzerland's highest peak and the second highest in the Alps – is at the top. The Matterhorn is just right of the cross. Clockwise from there are the Dent Blanche, Obergabelhorn, Zinalrothorn and Weisshorn. Immediately behind my climbing partner Grayden is the Rimpfischhorn, with the Dom and Alphubel behind].

![[A favourite, as the idea of footsteps to fill in the centre works perfectly. Taken from the Ben Nevis summit Plateaux. The summit itself is to the top left, Loch Linnhe and Loch Eil are on to the right. To the bottom left is Carn Mor Dearg with Aonach Mor and Aonach Beag behind]. ([Little Planets] Project.

![[Crook Hill is a great little summit and a fine viewpoint. Anticlockwise from the top; Kinder Scout, Lose Hill and Mam Tor, Win Hill, Bamford, Stanage and the Derwent Edges. I've tried to bring out the background detail more with this one, this leads to a bit of height distortion which is both good and bad. In a break with my normal ethics, I added the figure later, to add interest and amuse my friend Neil]. ([Little Planets] Project.
