Incredible Photo Technology

PostAuthor: jingjai » February 6, 2009, 11:20 pm

This is the MOST AMAZING picture..........

Click on the link at the bottom to open picture. The control for the picture is in the upper left. Press the + sign to zoom in, or the arrows to move right, left, up or down. If the picture looks fuzzy give it a second to clarify.

This is a remarkable panorama of the inauguration. It might not work well with a dial-up modem, but you can actually focus in on faces near the back of the crowd- nearly 1/2 mile!

For fun, focus on Obama (center stage) and then look behind him. There's Clarence Thomas seemingly asleep, Dick Cheney in his wheelchair, Clinton, Gore, Bush 41 and even Dan Quayle! Scalia is sitting there looking like the Grand Inquisitor. The clarity is amazing!

The technology is truly amazing- and it's un-classified! Imagine what our spy agencies can see with classified technology!!!

It must be a b1tch to be a Secret Service Agent. The whole crowd looked dodgy to me, especially that motley crew sitting behind the podium.

Don't know if that is Clint. He usually keeps his mouth closed and I don't think I've ever seen him wear a tie.
On a more technical note:
The panorama view consists of more than 220 single shots, taken with a Canon G10 by David Bergman and automatically connected with the GigaPan software.

Yes, that is very amazing. I guess it must work similar to GoogleEarth.
