Massive Skyline Panorama

Hey everyone, I don't want to kill the Corvetteforum's bandwidth so I've linked the picture to a high-bandwidth site that a friend of mine runs.

Check out this picture, but don't try to print it unless you have a really good plan.

Stony Man Panorama

A few people were walking so they are in the picture a couple of times, it came out pretty nicely though!

I used my little Canon Powershot SD 200 from a couple of years back... I took about 12 pictures from across the road, zoomed in a bit... I took them as quickly as possible so that people wouldn't get too far from where they started and all the cars were stopped the whole time. I used a program that came with the camera to "stitch" a panorama out of several pictures and it came out pretty nicely.

A few of the seams on the right-hand side of the picture are visible because of tree branches and other such stuff.

Yes, the picture is huge even though it is compressed, it's 17798 pixels wide and 1393 pixels tall for a grand total of 24,792,614 pixels... That ends up being kinda big when going for full detail.

Great times everyone!
