360 Degree Panorama Views
Imagine the view from the top of Canada
on Mount Logan or the highest point in Nova Scotia. If you are
not able to be there, the Summits of Canada will be taking panoramic
photos from through out our cross Canada journey and from each
of the summits.
We will be posting two types of panoramas
on our website for your pleasure - a static horizontal photo or
an interactive 360 degree panoramic using Apples QuickTime software.
We are excited about using QuickTime
and giving you a virtual reality experiences using 360o degree
panoramic photography. The images are constructed by splicing
together a series of overlapping photographs that encompass a
full panoramic rotation about a single point, or node. The viewer
interacts with the image by navigating with a computer
mouse to move back and forth, or up and down. Each image gives
the sensation of being at a location where one can turn around
completely and see in all directions. There is also the capability
of zooming in anywhere within the image.
In order to view the images you will
need to install QuickTime free from Apple Computer by going to
www.apple.com/quicktime/download/win.html
Here are some excellent examples of
QTVR 360 degree panorama images which showcase the beauty of the
software.
Enjoy the beauty and be sure to check
back with us on new images we will be posting here. If you would
like to be kept up to date with what is happening with our photos
