PHOTOGRAPHY:
Photography isn't my primary focus, but I am quite capable at it. I can cite many examples, but one stands out...
While working for The Catamaran Company I photographed all of their yacht listings within about an hour's driving distance. They had a large inventory of listings and listings came and went frequently.
For each yacht I photographed each cabin, salon, head as well as the galley, salon and cockpit. This is the equivalent of photographing very room in a home or real estate listing. I was an early adopter (at the time) of panoramic photography. I also shot panoramics of most of the same rooms.
One of the staff brokers remarked to me that once they started using the panoramic photography questions like "where exactly is the fridge" dropped to near zero freeing him up to handle more important things.
