Ricoh Theta S (I'm using the Theta S as my photo-a-day challenge for the month of April, so these are going to be coming through pretty consistently...)

These were taken at the Swine Pavilion! My fave photo spot. :-)

For this shot I set up the Theta on the mini Manfrotto tripod (so super handy!) and perched it in a terrifying way on the corner of the stair rail. I took two images using the WiFi trigger in the app, then used one image to clone myself out of the other image in PS Elements. It worked perfectly! Now I know that if I have a fairly static environment, I don't have to hide from the camera. I can just take a shot, move, and take another. It's probably an elementary discovery for spherical imaging, but I'm pretty pleased with myself.

This one is just the Theta S on a selfie stick standing on top of the mini Manfrotto. HDR capture with some toning-down of the kooky HDR colors, and a boost to contrast and clarity.

Super cool, these are really fun!

Ricoh Theta S

After the Democratic Mass Meeting (a first for me!), I snuck upstairs to the Third Floor Courtroom to snap some spherical images I've been daydreaming about. :-)

Theta S in the cherry blossoms

I fastened the Theta S' wrist strap around a branch, and then dangled it securely over a lower branch, to keep it stable. (You can see the wrist strap and blue bead if you look "up" - I corrected the orientation in Lightroom.) I was hiding on the other side of the trunk/densest flower layer and triggering the shutter from my Moto E. :-)

There continues to be great stuff here, folks. Very very creative. My brother got an S and comparing shots taken in the same place, it's a step up from the M15 for sure.

Here's some of my latest. This morning I paced my niece in her first 10k race.

Thetas are the best for selfies, and perfect for this type of "event" snapshots. Really fun! ^_^ TFS!

Wow, that's a really nicely lighted photo!

For this living room shot I used the HDR effect on a super long-necked tripod (I put a fully extended selfie stick on my Sirui with its legs at the shortest). Fired the shutter using the Android app.

Theta Image

ISO 800! Yikes! :-O Used the 5-second self-timer here and just ran away. Lucky those dogs didn't chase me!

Love all your shots--the one above with the flowering tree was amazing!

A few more from the Theta S

Long exposure in a car ride... could be much better - I'll be revisiting this staging.

And here's one in the snake pit! :-D This is a composite of two images, one with just the rat, and one with just the snake. I didn't want the snake to strike at the rat and bust up my Theta. The snake is Cocoa, one of my ball pythons, and the rat is a frozen/thawed sacrifice that I buy in bulk from MiceDirect.com. Feeding live animals is mostly cruel and definitely dangerous, so I'm glad all my snakes eat frodents (micicles).

About halfway through my "Single in April" with the Theta S and I'm already giving in to selfies. ;-) ISO priority used here.

Man, I need another camera like I need a hole in the head, but what a unique way to shoot. I was biking to work this morning and got to a street corner with a traffic accident on one corner, a construction worker on another, and shady, funky businesses on the other two. Would have made an amazing Theta shot!
