Caption

Immediately following the IVRPA Conference in Berkeley, CA I traveled with eight fellow VR photography enthusiasts to Yosemite National Park. With 11 tourists and a driver crammed into a small van we were a "close-knit" community. We had a great time climbing in and out of the van for two days taking panoramas all over the park. I took about twenty panoramas including the one shown here.

In the foreground is fellow traveler Ian Wood, a conference presenter of "Landmarks of Britain". Next to his pano-rig perched on the edge of the wall overlooking the valley is Matthias Taugwalder, also a conference presenter of "Shooting Panoramas Beyond 4000 Meters". He is known for his mountain top panoramas including the Matterhorn.

The VR phtography community is very inclusive and it is exciting and satisfying to be a part of it.
