In 2006 I shot our very first spherical aerial panorama, from which the AirPano project started, in the beautiful place of the Colorado and the San Juan rivers confluence The result was overwhelming – by looking at the large screen one had a total illusion of flying over the canyon. And so we decided to continue our experiments. The next attempt was made in 2007 above the island of Manhattan. I remember this photo shoot by one funny detail: there were no headphones for passengers in the helicopter's cabin. I had to shout from the back seat (while trying to overcome the engine roar that was coming from the open door) to let the pilot know where to go. He didn't hear me anyway, so in order to change the shooting position I had to tap on his shoulder and then – after he looked at me – I had to point the direction with my finger where the thumb down meant moving lower. And guess how I showed him to go higher It was fun.fter that incident, when hiring a helicopter I always ask: Do you have passenger headphones in the cabin? And pilots are always surprised: But of course! Is it possible not to have them? Yes, it is possible, — I answer — In New York :)Despite of all the difficulties, this photo shoot was accomplished, delivering world's first virtual photo tour above Manhattan. There were many more flights after this one, and many like-minded people joined AirPano project in the process. As of today we shot around 700 spherical panoramas showing over 170 most interesting and beautiful places in all the continents of our planet including Antarctica and North Pole. 120 of them you can view on our website while the remaining materials are still in production. We also made virtual photo tours over the world's most beautiful cities. READ MORE...http://www.airpano.com
