Big Eye in the Sky

I'm Ed Fink, and these are my 360 degree panoramas. I believe I'm the first VR photographer in the world to do high resolution spherical panoramas from a helicopter.

The 360 degree aerials are such a blast they're my main focus now, although I still shoot lots of ground-level VR, like crowd panoramas, building interior/exteriors, and even cars.

I loved creating these panoramas, and I hope you enjoy looking at them.

The Visionary Art of Gil Bruvel

Gil Bruvel's visionary style grew out of the dream of making intuitive art. "I have no interest in recreating reality", he says; instead his work emphasizes the imaginative aspects of the mind and body, along with intuition.
After a childhood spent making art and studying at Laurent de Montcassin's Restoration Workshop in France, the classically trained Bruvel emerged as a defining force in the Visionary Art Movement.
The result is canvasses alive with color, animated by whimsy and archetypal vision.

A Guide to the Orders of Trilobites

Trilobites are hard-shelled, segmented creatures that existed over 300 million years ago in the Earth's ancient seas. They went extinct before dinosaurs even came into existence, and are one of the key signature creatures of the Paleozoic Era, the first era to exhibit a proliferation of the complex life-forms that established the foundation of life as it is today. Although dinosaurs are the most well-known fossil life forms, trilobites are also a favorite among those familiar with Paleontology (the study of the development of life on Earth), and are found in the rocks of all continents.

A Guide to the Orders of Trilobites

A really superb resource on these marvellous critters! Rich illustrated.
