Month: April 2010

Captured a 360° gigapixel panorama of the Richmond Olympic Oval. It set consisted 312 individual 18-megapixel photos for a total of 624 photos and took 3 hours to complete.

The Oval was the venue for the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics Speed Skating events. Most of the banners and decors have been removed. But some will remain as part of the Olympic legacy.

Special thanks to Mr. Aran Kay (Assistant Manager, Communications & Brand Development) for making the shoot possible and to the helpful staff members (below).
