The 360 photographers of Rio 2016

The state of 360 capture is such that you can currently almost always find the photographer in the shot, even in high-profile, brand-name pictures. These are from the 360 photos coverage of the Rio 2016 Olympics by Getty Images in the Oculus 360 Photos app. There are so few photographers shooting in 360 at the Olympics that they become recognizable almost immediately!

I think this photographer (below) is the only one who did it right. He’s blending into the crowd while holding a selfie stick that disappears in the stitch. Well done!

To see 360 photo coverage of the Rio 2016 Olympics, go to Oculus 360 Photos in a Gear VR or Oculus Rift headset.
