Panoramic Tour of the Cabot Gardens, Les Quatre Vents

Les Jardins de Quatre-Vents: An Immersive Tour

These world famous gardens located in La Malbaie in the Charlevoix region of Québec will be illustrated in amazing detail using interactive panoramic photography in an upcoming CD- publication "Immersive Photography of Les Jardins de Quatre Vents", by David Gibson of ETPanorama.

Here you will find preliminary demo versions of panoramas taken in the gardens in the summer of 2005. We hope that these will whet your apetite for the full CD version of the Garden Visit. The full version will contain high resolution panoramas and will include audio tracks recorded by Francis Cabot and many additional features. The CD version of the panoramic tour will span the full season of the garden enabling you to watch it's progression from early spring to late autumn.

This page links to several versions of the demo panoramas (medium resolution version for the web), including QTVR (QuickTime), Immervision (Java), SpiV (Shockwave) and PangeaVR (open GL-Macintosh only).

To start the Demo tour, please select one version of the panoramas to view:

QuickTime (QTVR) : requires plugin

QuickTime (QTVR): mini tour (small screen version)

Immervision (Java): requires Java

PangeaVR: Macintosh computer only
