Interview: Tito Dupret Grabs Hold of our Changing Landscapes Through Pano-photography

It’s lonely out here in Tibet. The sun is shining down over a mountain and for miles around there is not a soul in sight. The sky is clear and at my feet I can see six layers of brown stones, about the size of baseballs, piled up by an unknown people.

These stone piles dot the landscape – only a few feet away I can see a pile of them shaped into what looks like a house with two or three rooms.

No, I’m not in Tibet. I’m also not reading an archaeological report, or even a looking at a virtual reconstruction. I’m immersed in a photographic panorama of an actual site in Tibet. The objects are real and were shot by a photographer – Tito Dupret – who was actually there.
