How this Virtual Tour was made

To get the best illumination from the Sinaloa Art Museum and avoid high contrasts, the majority of the pictures are taken in either the first or last hours of the day.

In this occasion was at three in the afternoon when I did the shots and to avoid the over exposition of the sealing in the shots I did three photographies with two steps of difference in the exposition and PTGui and stitched them in HDR.
