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 Google Trusted Photographer offering Google Business Photos (aka "Indoor Street View") in Minneapolis and St. Paul. I've recently started integrating Google Business Photos in my 360° aerials.

The Veterans Day panoramas were shot for Mickael Therer's collaborative VR project commemorating the end of "The War To End All Wars."
In the U.S. there is no specific ceremony marking the end of World War One. Instead, Nov. 11 is recognized as Veterans Day, a time for honoring veterans of all wars. (Like my father, Lee S. Fink, who served in World War Two, Korea, and Vietnam.)
Visit The War To End All Wars collaborative VR project to see 360 degree panoramas of WWI battlefields and various Nov. 11th memorials and ceremonies around the world.
The North Bridge panoramas were shot for the World Wide Panorama: Bridges project.
After adding the "Veterans" category for the Veterans Day panoramas, it struck me that perhaps my Concord North Bridge panoramas also belonged in this category. The men and boys who fought and died on this bridge and during the Brit's bloody retreat to Boston were the very first American veterans.
