Britain has so many jewels in it’s glorious crown - castles, landscapes, historic houses and picturesque villages - and photographer Rod Edwards has captured some of this beauty in a series of mind-blowing 360-degree photographs. Take a tour without ever leaving home.

Using a panoramic head a tripod Rod was able to rotate and shoot the whole 360-degree sphere with a digital camera and special fish eye lens. The individual images were then carefully stitched together using software to produce a ‘spherical’ or ‘equirectangular’ image. You can click through to see more of each image or visit the site www.rodedwards.co.uk to see the full selection.
