In case anyone wants to play around with re-creating "Interesting Tree" from a previous post of mine:

Explanation of what this is:
Spherical Panoramas are created by capturing as few as 12 or as many as 108 images of a scene from one point.
These images must cover 180 x 360 degrees, meaning all the way around the scene including straight up and then straight down.
After the shoot, the images may be rendered to HDR and edited to remove the photographer and/or tripod.
Then they are stitched together using one of many stitching softwares and output as a layered file for further editing of possible stitching errors.
The resultant image will show the original scene in every possible direction, a sphere effectively mapped onto a rectangle.
This image can be used as the basis for virtual reality.
