Stirling & Stirling Castle – View from Wallace Monument

Stirling is a city in central Scotland. At the heart of its old town, medieval Stirling Castle is on a craggy volcanic rock. On the Abbey Craig outcrop, the National Wallace Monument is a 19th-century tower. It overlooks the site of the 1297 Battle of Stirling Bridge, where William Wallace defeated the English. The Battle of Bannockburn Experience has interactive 3D displays on the history of the 1314 conflict. The 150° view of Stirling and the Wallace Monument is a 2.4 billion pixel image composed of 208 photos taken on June 6, 2013. It was captured using a Canon 5D MKII, Canon EF 400mm f/4 L IS USM lens and a Clauss Rodeon VR Station ST. Special thanks to Duncan McNab of Edinburgh Day Tours. Photo by Ronnie Miranda.
