The first ever panoramic photo published by the Hungarian edition of National Geographic Magazine

The Hungarian edition of National Geographic feautres several articles about wine and wine making in its Septermber 2008 issue.

The first illustration for the article titled Sunshine in the Barrel (p48) is a panoramic image taken by Tamas D.Varga. While the original image is a 360 degree shot the edited image is a cut and crosses two pages. The panoramic image shows the unique series of wine cellars in Villanykovesd, Hungary and is a good example to show that panoramic photographs definitely provide a greater sense of scale about the location than conventional formats.

New 7 Wonders - The Great Wall of China

The New 7 Wonders of the World were announced at a ceremony in Lisbon, Portugal on Saturday, July 7, 2007 - 07.07.07.

Panoramas.dk, the leading VR and immersive image site run by Hans Nyberg features Tamas D. Varga's Great Wall panorama movie on the site among other New 7 Wonders. >>>

From Panoramas.dk: "Interactive panoramas is a young media and as such it has for many years been known among entusiastic photographers and multimedia creators. An interactive VR panorama can not be seen in a book or on a printed image. If you print the panorama it gets a completely different expression.

You can only experience the feeling of being at the place and look around, on a computer. You can only distribute Vr Panoramas by the Internet or on CD.
With new fast internet connections Virtual Reality Panoramas has a large advantage in the tourist industry and in many other areas.
As a dokumentary of cultural heritage VR Photography is an excellent media which within a much smaller download than videos can give you a full view of a church or an ancient temple.
No other media can give you the feeling of being at the place like VR photos. And the ultimate feeling comes when you view them in Fullscreen >>>

If you have ever get close to a historical site and you feel that past connects to the present you'll have an experience for a lifetime. Spending several days and a night at the time of full moon on the Wall at Simatai and Jinshanling had been such a strong impulse that we created www.sleeponthegreatwall.com.

"Yoomurjak's ring" is the world's first interactive movie (FMV = Full Motion Video) and adventure PC game with more than 700 exciting panoramas taken by PanoGraph.
Unique in way like no other 3D games with its looping motion of the actors in the static panoramic photos that were taken by series of exposures. First in class, an Eger city marketing project by Private Moon Studios of Pierrot.

"On foot, Eger is presented as a series of brilliant photographs of the city, each with a 360 degree panoramic view. The scope of the photographed streets is immense - it certainly feels like someone photographed all of Eger and put it into the game. A few shamelessly gorgeous views from a terrace only help immerse players in the game." (G.Schmidl brasslantern.org)
