## Summary

Planetary Carousel places your images around an invisible orbital path, creating a dynamic depth effect where cards move toward and away from the viewer as they rotate.

## Description

### A 3D image carousel that orbits like a planet.

Turn a simple image gallery into a cinematic 3D experience.

**Planetary Carousel** places your images around an invisible orbital path, creating a dynamic depth effect where cards move toward and away from the viewer as they rotate.

Drag to explore the orbit, release for natural momentum, or let autoplay continuously rotate the gallery.

Perfect for portfolios, creative websites, photography, product showcases, agency sites, and interactive landing pages.
