About the Photographer
Don Bain is the Director of the Geography Computing Facility at the University of California Berkeley. His specialty is geographically oriented digital graphics. He founded The Geo-Images Project in 1994, one of the earliest web sites, to present imagery for education in geography and environmental sciences.
He was an early adopter of QTVR (VR panoramas) and maintains his own site of over 5000 panoramas, Don Bain's Virtual Guidebooks, which attempts to present a comprehensive collection of landscapes in western North America and Pacific Islands. He was for several years on the board of directors of the International VR Photography Association (IVRPA, formerly IQTVRA), and was one of the local hosts for the International VR Photography Conference held in Berkeley, June 15-20, 2007.
Don founded the World Wide Panorama with Landis Bennett in January 2004. He was interviewed by Michelle Bienias for the March 2005 issue of VRMag.
