Translating the excitement of the aerial view from an open cock pit weight shift control light sport aircraft for others to enjoy is one of the goals here at the Sky Gypsies and from the quality and unique aerial photographs many other pilots share this vision. But creating the "Big View" photographs or PTS based panoramas (PTSPs) takes a good deal of hard work, in planning, flying, and processing. Well, there is another method that can be used to create engaging and interesting aerial panoramas without all the precision flying and processing. Microsoft has a really neat application called photosynth. It represents a different way of "seeing" and "[i]n simple terms, Photosynth allows you to take a bunch of photos of the same scene or object and automagically stitch them all together into one big interactive 3D viewing experience that you can share with anyone on the web." This is an ideal application for aerial panoramas and creating interactive 3D flying experiences with a still camera. I have created several examples using both horizontal panorama photographs and vertical panoramas Here is a link to the how to video. Before you can view the photosynths you will be prompted to download Silverlight from Microsoft. It will download for you and just reload the page.
Just one more way to show the world how much fun flying can be from The Sky Gypsies.
Note in added proof: Here is a link to an aerial photosynth taken using a kite in Hawaii.  Trikes can do better.
Hang glider pilots are doing it, see here.
