I bet you cannot detect one error on it!
That's a man on his two feet.

Wow! So much for 'hiding in the crowd.' :/

Good work to that guy, I hope this is just a hobby, not his job...

 

[bngenoh]

WOW, i never liked being in crowds/cities anyway. :D

Looks like a problem with the stitching... I'm sure there is more than one of those.

BEFORE THE RIOT version 1 - The Vancouver Canucks Fan Zone along Georgia St. for Game 7 of the 2011 Stanley Cup Final was captured at 5:46 pm on June 15, 2011. It is made up of 216 photos (12 across by 18 down) stitched together, taken over a 15-minute span, and is not supposed to represent a single moment in time. The final hi-res file is 69,394 X 30,420 pixels or 2,110 megapixels. Special thanks to Bonita Howard and CBC Real Estate.

There are much more.

Google: "15 gigapixel photo"
this one is a 45 Gpx photo:

Try: google "70 gigapixel photo"

So you have to ask: what is the highest Gpx available?
Much higher, in military circles... would be my guess...

Cheers!

That's frightening. Like google earth, up to date.

Yeah , at that stitching thing was one of my first thoughts too. But why it only applies to his face ?
I mean , I don't know thats why I am asking.

I remember looking through some of these earlier this year, and noticing the glitches. It was more obvious in the photo I remembered viewing (Obama's inauguration iirc), and there would be hats floating in mid air, wrong faces connected to wrong bodies (with humorous results) and other odd anomalies where the stitching took place. I imagine as the software gets more advanced, it tries to automatically blend as much as possible. Just a guess.

I've heard of a camera that takes a photo that weights the total of a hard drive.

Because it was taken by 4 cameras I think, it's not a single picture so they needed to fit them. Look at the lower right corner, you can find more there.

Am I the only one that feels a sort of vertigo when zooming in and out this kind of images? Even Google Earth makes me somewhat dizzy.
Anyway, great job!
