A GROUP OF ENTERPRISING Russian photographers is busy building an incredible collection of high-resolution aerial images of famous sites and cities around the world.
The AirPano team is currently involved in a photography project at the Taj Mahal in India and plans to head to Barcelona, London and Istanbul in the coming weeks.
