damn thats some zoom right there

Whao that is fun. I personal think that this photo is taken by a satelite as I never heard or seen before normal digital cameras having gigapixels unlike those special camera that are onboard space rovers and satelites.

WOW waht took it a satellite

not from that angle: that satellite would be pretty close to the ground if it was at that angle...


i say a camera which focused the image onto a big CCD


edit:


this proves that they used multiple pictures to make the one big pic lol


if you havent figured it out yet: look at the guy.

how did they do that what is wrong with those guys legs

here's a link with more..

These pictures you are seeing are seams, this huge picture is made by taking several lower resolution (still high though) and then aliging them together!!

Complicated...

terrible camera! I am sure this is not from satellite.
Such gigapixcel give so much power to zoom for some small things.
But I search through the photo "inch-by-inch" escpecially on the building.
There is no girl dressing herself (or opposit) so this camera useless for me (just kidding )

That is really amazing.

You're absolutely right. How they did it is explained here:

How they did it!

Meh it doesn't take a genius to figure out how they done it, once you see the dodgy pictures
