Amazing panoramas (Mt. Everest and others)

Josh Silverman of Rockefeller University has provided this link to a remarkable panoramic view from the summit of Mt. Everest. It is, as he notes, “an illustration of the beautiful complexity inherent in the natural world.”

There are many other excellent panoramas also at the site. The views can be scrolled and zoomed. Quicktime 5 is needed and a great big screen is nice.
