very nice, It would be good to see a more zoomed in pic of somthing like a car.

There are cars in there. Some are chopped in half. Why? Some look like limos. Did they take a bunch of pics, and puzzled them together?

 

[CDailey]

Yes, they took hundreds of photos and stitched them together.

That town reminds me of the town I lived in Holland, only with a lot more buildings. Awesome pic!

I wonder what city that is. It just said Delft University, which is probably in Delft.

Amazing picture! Good find! 👍

 

[Quick_Nick]

Yeah, very amazing! You can see the whole city & then just zoom in to the license plate of a car.

 

[Nasadus]

Some parts are missing.Still very impressive though.

 

[Race Idiot]

Wow, that is awesome although I did find a few flaws. But it's still awesome.

I couldn't find any nice cars though.

Beyond the errors, it's a great picture. Makes me feel like a government guy.

Check out the antenna on this car. I bet it gets great reception.

 

[CAMAROBOY69]

Very impressive pic. 👍

 

[Cosmic]

Awesome , and nice pictures 👍

 

[911_Carrera]

Ouch. I bet this hurt...

 

[cardude2004]

That is awesome. Did you read the details though, they say it was a long exposure and multiple photo's. It looks like things are merging because of the long exposure.

 

[Cosmic]

Ouch. I bet this hurt...

That looks like a bug/glitch.

 

[CAMAROBOY69]

Looking around in that makes me feel like im playing "Wheres Waldo" Sure is impressive though. 👍

 

[TwinTurboJay]

damn thats cool....there is a parking lot on the mid-left hand side that you can't even see when it is zoomed out.....I looked in every damn window for "questionable actions by sexy secretaries"...no dice.

 

[cardude2004]

Ouch. I bet this hurt...

Yeah, that was the effect of the long exposure.

 

[LoudMusic]

Bah, it's a big Photoshop stitch. Woo. I've done the same thing, just not to that scale.

 

[LoudMusic]

The website says that image is 78,797 x 31,565 pixels. Photoshop can only handle 30,000 x 30,000 which is .9gigapixel. I'd say they are using some beafy software.

So maybe it is painfully large. I'm more impressed with the web app they used to display it (:

 

[pimp racer]

WOW that is just amazing!

 

[240Z]

Really cool.

 

[SlipZtrEm]

That's damn huge. I've made pictures that are about 10,000 pixels wide a couple times using the Panorama option on the Nikon, and unless absolutely everything's staying still, you normally get those strange mergings happening. It can be avoided if you're patient though.

Wow LoudMusic... I didn't even know Photoshop even *had* limits. Heh.

 

[cardude2004]

I didn't know photoshop had limits either.

 

[240Z]

I'm stupid, wrong post in wrong thread
