Panoramic views

Want to visit faraway places, but don't have the time or money? The next best thing is a "virtual" visit through the lenses of panoramic photography.

Here's a view of Puerto Cabello, Venezuala. Use your mouse to drag the image. You'll see it rotate 360 degrees - almost like being there!

More panoramic photos are at ViewAt.org, Panoshow, and Don Bain's Virtual Guidebooks

This technology is used in interiors as well as in scenery. Some realtors are using it to show houses. Many tourist attractions have added virtual tours to their websites.

Add the phrase "virtual tour" to any search, and see what you can come up with. For example, search for:"luxury homes" virtual tour" or graceland "virtual tour" or "carlsbad caverns" virtual tour.

Have fun - and remember, if you get dizzy, just close your eyes for a few seconds. ;-)
