Some background: Each panoramic picture is made up of 16-18 individual pictures. These pictures are joined to make one panoramic picture with a tool called "Live Picture PhotoVista". This process starts by bending or warping each picture, since the only straight line in a panorama is the horizon (the viewer will later straighten the picture as you view it). Then the pictures are stitched together and the brightness/contrast is adjusted throughout the new picture. For a panoramic VR tour, another tool, "Live Picture Reality Studio", is used to link the panoramas and animate the transitions. More panoramic pictures taken by Gerald Werner can be viewed at Expanded Horizons.
