Welcome to BigEyeInTheSky.com


I'm Ed Fink, these are my 360 degree panoramas. I was the first photographer in the world to shoot 360 degree panoramas from a helicopter. Today I'm a FAA licensed drone pilot and shoot most of my aerials with a quadcopter.


In addition to shooting aerial panoramas, 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 100 MILLION VIEWS.

Ask me for more information or an estimate for your business!

Telefarm Towers Shoreview 360 degree aerial panorama at the Telefarm Towers in Shoreview, MN. These are 1436' transmission towers for Twin Cities television stations WCCO, KSTP, KARE, and many radio stations. The towers were replacements for a tower that collapsed in 1971, killing six workers on the tower and one on the ground. This is the highest altitude quadcopter aerial I've done so far. (It's also higher than all but one of my helicopter panoramas!) Normally 400' is the max alititude for a drone, but the FAA allows flights up to 400' HIGHER than nearby structures.
