Malogorski photographs his panoramic views with a Cirkut camera, which uses flexible film, 8 inches by 72 inches, that can only be contact printed. He converted this camera, made in the 1920s, from a spring-wind motor to electric drive. Even so, it takes at least 10 minutes to set up the camera, with exposure time for a single frame being as long as two hours. The result is a 360-degree view of an interior or landscape that creates a lyrical compositional band through line and light.

Malogorski's work can be found in the collections of the Kettering (Ohio) Medical Center; the U.S. Consulate, Hong Kong; and Lincoln National Corporation, Fort Wayne, Indiana.
