Spanish term or phrase: tomar una panorámica
El paseo se inicia desde la misma plaza de la bonita iglesia de Es Cubells, que rodearemos para llegar al mirador que se encuentra en la parte posterior de la misma. Es momento de tomar una panorámica. Las vistas lo merecen. Si miráis un poco más a vuestra derecha encontraréis el ....

Explanation:
I'm sure you are right as this is what people normally do at 'miradores' and most smart phones even have a special setting to allow you to do this.

Take a landscape photo


Explanation:
Indeed, to alludes to a type of photo. One where the importance lies in the landscape. I suppose you may come with a more natural or fluent wording for it than I have suggested though.

neutral  Robert Carter: "Panoramic" refers to the aspect ratio; "landscape" refers to the subject. You can take a panoramic shot of an interior space, for example. Saludos!//Yes, you have a point, although I still think it refers more to the angle of the shot (i.e., wide).

  -> Indeed. However, the term in the text refers more to the "beautiful sight" rather than tha capabilities of a device. I mean, the phrase "tomar una panorámica" applies to my 1981 first cammera which had no focus whatsoever
agree  Carlos Teran: As a photography enthusiast, I agree with this answer. A panoramic, is a landscape photo.
