Igloo Panorama

General May 10th, 2009

Here’s a panorama from inside an igloo just outside Igloolik in Nunavut. You can click and drag to pan and use ctrl and shift to zoom in and out. That’s my brother on the right and also notable are our most gracious hosts on the opposite side and smoke hole at the top of the igloo. The temperature outside was about -14 degrees Celsius (7F) and it was quite cozy being inside out of the wind and all bundled up.

(The QTVR panorama will take a few moments to download. You need QuickTime installed to view it.)

    So tell us more. Did you make the igloo? How and time etc. Did you stay overnight?
    It doesnt snow here in the city, we have to drive to it and igloos are rare, the stuff of imagination mainly.

    I didn’t make the igloo. I was created the week before for a famous actor who did stay there. When I took this panorama the igloo had been up for a week and had started to deform slightly in the sun. I’m not sure how long this one took to build but if you’re skilled I’m told it’s quite quick!
