I actually worked in this building for some time. Sad sight, but there's something awesome about the destruction as well.
It's a Virtual Tour of five panoramas, hotspotted with the added bonus of a scrolling scene selector along the bottom and full feature compatibility with mobile/iOS as well. (Not much scrolling with only five panoramas, but keep an eye out for a loaded example coming soon.)
If using Flash, social network and email sharing is available for added bonus. The coolest thing about that is, that it will also share the exact view of the panorama you are posting.
Like this: http://bit.ly/p1345j.
So go find your sweet spot in any of the five panoramas and post/send the very view to/with your friends. Brilliant, if I say so myself. iOS support for this latter feature is on its way.

Check out Leftovers (2006), a panoramic animation short I photographed a few years back. It is viewable interactively, or as a regular 45 sec animation.

» Internatioanl Pillow Fight Day 2009
The 3rd annual International Pillow Fight Day took place on a beautiful spring day on Union Square. It was the 5th annual overall, but the in its first two years, the event did not enjoy participation from around the globe.
If the turnout was smaller than expected, that must have been due to the crowds splitting their priorities between the pillow fight and being among the first to pick up their iPad, released on the same day . . . .

Just as the city began its painfully slow recovery from the snowstorm over the weekend, Wednesday morning brought on more snow and some trecherous winds with speeds of up to 50 mph. Local bus services were cancelled and drivers were discouraged to drive by the threat of hefty penalties.
In the meantime, on the cusp of the city's industrial underbelly, not far below the slowly awakening neighbourhood bars of Canton, Clinton Street was bustling with trucks under the watchful eyes of John W. Brown.

Baltimore snow storm 2010.
There was snow. It needed to be transformed into either a pile on the edge of the sidewalk or . . .

Christmas may have passed, but - not unlike like the pine needles in the creases of your floor - Frosty lingers.

These panos weight in at 3MB+, but I really thought that the added zoomability and detail was worth it. I hope you feel the same way upon your wait while downloading them.

This year's Maryland State Police Polar Bear Plunge held to benefit the Maryland Special Olympics was as polar as could be. Maryland's First Lady took the plunge in the company of Joe Flacco and Adam Terry of the Baltimore Ravens.
Air and water temperatures were around 23 and 36 degrees, respectively.

The Boston Santacon kicked off at the Purple Shamrock. Red, white and green people gathered until having gained the momentum to launch onto the streets and into more pubs, restaurants and the subway.
More to come, as always.

Amanda Palmer performed live at The State Theater during her Fall tour, accompanied by the Nervous Cabaret. She can't do wrong, but she really did right tonight!
More soon . . . 'til then, visit her.

The National Cathedral website has recently published a dozen of my panoramas. Please visit and check them out. You will need QuickTime to view them. Those with iPods, iPhones and iTunes or Macs should have that already in place.
I am including one below plus a couple of eye candies from the same panorama.
I am grateful for the challenge of photographing this one. The last minute fabrication (i just about had to be kicked out of Home Depot that night) has paid off and have used the setup it yielded on several subsequent sessions, most notably during my Washington Monument project.

Thanks to Molly Crabapple, who chose my photograph to accompany the New York Times article about her endeavors, you can see a partial panorama in the Art section of the October 4 issue.

This is a very exciting reprise to the Washington Post having carried the interactive version of my Monument crowd panorama during the Obama inauguration.
Thanks again.

Yet another deliciously twisted session brought to you by Molly Crabapple and friends. Dedicated to Lucha Libre, Manko, the beautiful British model started off her poses as a mysterious man of generous proportions.
Note the rarity of the occasion as Molly gets to actually sketch at an event she hosts.
