Backyard Springtime in New Jersey.

Little-Planet view of my backyard and house on a clear day. The image is a  composite of 37 images taken with a Fuji X-T1 camera and Bower 8 mm f/2.8 fisheye lens (ISO 200, 8 mm, f/16, 1/30 sec). I used the Mindarin Astro http://orderastro.com/ to do the 360 degree rotation and control the camera. JPG images processed with AutoPano Giga Pro (Little Planet) and Photoshop CC. If you look close my Selfie Shadow is in the image.
