BBC Panorama’s Declan Lawn manages to track down a troll in Cardiff that goes by the name of Nimrod Severn (real name Darren Burton) and specialises in leaving offensive comments on “RIP” pages on Facebook,

AirPano is a site dedicated to high resolution 3D aerial panoramas. Moscow-based photographers Oleg Gaponyuk, Sergey Rumyantsev, and Sergey Semenov shoot aerial panoramas from helicopters, light jets, air balloons and radio-controlled helicopter models. So far they’ve created over 100 fully interactive 360º scrollers. You’ll lose yourself in there.

Jeffrey Martin, the founder of 360cities, was hired by Wembley Stadium to create a panorama of the 2011 FA Cup Final. He shot 1000 photographs of the 90,000 fans in attendance, then stitched them all together into a massive, 20 gigapixel, 360-degree scroller. You can see virtually every face in the crowd, and tag anyone you know.

Check out the final photo here.

We’ve all seen footage and photographs of the horrific aftermath of the quake and tsunami in Japan, but there’s something especially haunting about this 360Cities active panorama of decimated Rikuzen-Takada in the Iwate Prefecture.

An entire town, deserted and reduced to landfill.

360Cities has created a humungous 40 gigapixel interior panorama of the gorgeous 18th century Strahov library in the Czech Republic, composed of 3000 hi-res images stitched seamlessly together. They claim it’s the largest indoor image ever photographed.

It’s properly gob-smacking. You can read the title of virtually every book.
