As part of my ongoing project photographing local area artists in their studios, here are some virtual visits with several artists of the Tashiro Kaplan Artist Lofts, located in downtown Seattle’s Pioneer Square neighborhood. Included here are Barbara Noonan, Kate Vrijmoet, Paul D. McKee and Ingrid Lahti who shares her studio with Paula Whelan. To learn more about these artists and their artwork, be sure to check out their websites by clicking on their names above.

Of special note: These particular VR panoramas were shot in very high resolution (over 400 megapixels), so be sure to zoom in (by hitting the shift, command/ctl keys) to explore all the details.

“Art, Home Accoutrements, and Dead People’s Furniture” is how “The Anne Bonny” website describes its small nicknack store on Summit Ave E in Seattle’s Capitol Hill neighborhood. This very high-resolution VR panorama should give you a good peek inside. But like all stores of this type, contents come and go, so do stop in once in a while to see what’s new!

I shot this black & white high resolution VR panorama a couple nights ago underneath the Alaskan Way Viaduct on Seattle’s downtown waterfront.

The large industrial building you see opposite the viaduct is the western plant for the Seattle Steam Company, one of two of their steam plants that supply direct heat to over 200 buildings in Seattle’s central business district.

Some VR images I took on the University of Washington Campus. The first two are high-resolution. The last is of a more “standard resolution” and shows a shorter depth of field.

Some VR images I took at the Washington Park Arboretum. The first of which is in high-resolution. The next two are of a more “standard resolution” and show shorter depths of field.

Please note- There is a lot of detail in the high-resolution VR image (branches, leaves, grass etc). Because of this, compression is not as optimal under these types of circumstances. A high-speed connection is best for loading this very large image.

A high-res (400+ megapixels) VR shot at Olive Way & Howell streets in Seattle’s Belltown neighborhood. Made from 58 12MP images shot with the GF1/20mm.

You can see earlier VR images of this intersection when the high-rise buildings were still under construction here and here.
