I'm Ed Fink, and these are my 360 degree panoramas. I was the first VR photographer in the world to do fullscreen 360° panoramas from a helicopter. Today I'm a FAA licensed drone pilot and shoot most of my aerials with a quadcopter.
I'm also a Google Street View Trusted Photographer in Minneapolis shooting Street View tours inside local businesses.
I publish thousands of 360 degree panoramas and virtual tours to Google Maps, where I currently have over 40 MILLION VIEWS.
Take a look below at some of my Google tours, or go to my Google Street View page for more information and many samples.
I want to partner with you to offer Google Street View virtual tours to your clients! Google hosts the tour in Google Maps, but you're needed to also embed the tour in your client's web pages, blog, or Facebook.

My quadcopter is actually more exciting than shooting from a helicopter. In a helicopter I'm concentrating on my cameras (and worrying that if something goes wrong and I don't get the client's photos I'll have to pay for the helicopter myself!), but with the quadcopter I'm doing my own flying. It's a blast!
I created this page to display some of my aerial photography and video. I'm still building my flying skills and my Adobe Premiere/After Effects skills, and trying to determine the best settings, so these videos vary in exposure, saturation, sharpness, stabilization, lens correction, etc.
