Cloud Gate Chicago Flash Panorama



Above is a 360x180 degree panorama of Cloud Gate, Chicago. Click load to view - click and drag to look around. To view fullscreen (recommended) simply click 'open' and again click and drag.

Cloud Gate is British artist Anish Kapoor's first public outdoor work installed in the United States. The 110-ton elliptical sculpture is forged of a seamless series of highly polished stainless steel plates, which reflect the city's famous skyline and the clouds above. A 12-foot-high arch provides a "gate" to the concave chamber beneath the sculpture, inviting visitors to touch its mirror-like surface and see their image reflected back from a variety of perspectives.


Inspired by liquid mercury, the sculpture is among the largest of its kind in the world, measuring 66-feet long by 33-feet high.

  2. The flash panorama looks very interesting to me. How do you create it? Is a fisheye lens required? What software did you use to combine the pictures?
