The Masons' Loft panoramas have been produced by Blender and then imported into QTVR Authoring Studio where the ends of the images were stitched together, scenes were produced and hotspots were added. These panoramas have been created in Blender with the software's capacities of producing panoramic images and are not created by taking actual photographs with a camera. So although horizontally they cover 360 degrees, vertically they do not offer a large scope.
When the cursor is placed over the panorama, it changes into a circled dot. Click and drag to move around and press the buttons on the console below the panorama to zoom in or out. The cursor turns into a sphere over features of the panorama for which additional information is provided. Click on the 'Show hotspots' button to view better the location of the links.
You can resize the left frame window if it looks too narrow by dragging the ruler.
To view the panorama you must have QuickTime plug-in.
