I have a new found love for taking 360 degree panoramic photos!

[KynloStephen66515]

So...I bought me and the Mrs new phones (HTC One M8) and have pretty much started to over use one feature the phone has......360Degree Photos!!!!!

Here are a couple that I have taken so far (If you view from a smart-phone and click the globe button, you can tilt your phone and turn around and such as if you are actually there!)

Yeah, I love 360 degree photos. It seemed like such an amazing revolution to have this tech in my pocket when Google came out with it as a core Android feature a couple years back. It's still pretty awesome. That second one in particular looks really good, though the first (Great Orme) has some stitching errors.

Yeah for some reason the Great Orme one just wouldn't work properly at all - not sure why, it might have been the brightness of the sun, or perhaps I moved a little too much (I was stood on uneven ground) - I do agree the park one is the better of the 2

The Great Orme one is the more impressive image/location though.
I feel like I'm wearing new glasses when I move around these images... Amazing technology though, and a great way to show off somewhere beautiful

I have some photos from there if you like the look of it, will upload them to here when I get home (on phone right now and don't wanna upload shit load of pics and use all my data haha)

wpanorama.com is FREE, and good for viewing panoramas on your desktop computer. I use the beta version from October 2, 2015

Damn impressive scenery...and the tech is cool too.

LOL Amen to that!

Thanks @Stephen66515. Funny, I couldn't get either of those images to show 360° in  either Firefox or MS Edge browsers.
I did notice stitching errors in both of them, by the way.
I also noticed that The Great Orme hasn't changed much!

"360 Degree photos" is a misnomer. 360 degrees is a circle. These photos are spherical. It's more accurate to call them photospheres. But yeah, they're really cool! Thanks for sharing your photos.

They have spherical videos, too. See what Vi has to say about "360" starting at about 45 seconds. Though the video is actually a rant against Pi.

Worked fine in Pale Moon, K-Meleon, IE11, Chromodo.

Almost always going to happen where you have straight lines.
