2nd largest photo ever taken. It's a zoomable single photo that you can see all the people, cars, buildings.

Took 10,000 photos and 6 hours to take the photo from Tokyo tower. 12 days to process it on a hefty computer. 4 months of work to stitch and correct to display what you see.

Simply amazing.

Tokyo Tower 2nd largest photo ever taken.

Seems to work best with a touch pad, like iPad or iPhone.

  • Impressive. It's just a shame that Tokyo is such an abominably ugly concrete wasteland of a city.

  • That was really neat to see. It's amazing how detailed the image is and how you can zoom in and see people on the sidewalks. It must've been a rare Godzilla-free day, though, because I couldn't find him anywhere. :smirk:
    "This principle is most certain: The non-Christian cannot in any way be Pope. The reason for this is that he cannot be head of what he is not a member. Now, he who is not a Christian is not a member of the Church, and a manifest heretic is not a Christian, as is clearly taught by St. Cyprian, St. Athanasius, St. Augustine, St. Jerome, and others. Therefore, the manifest heretic cannot be Pope." -- St. Robert Bellarmine
