A new world record was recently broken.
As of November 2010, there is a new World’s Largest 360° Panoramic image, of London, weighing in at 80 GIGApixels.
For the nerds amongst us: 7886 separate hi-res images make up this one photograph, totaling 80 billion pixels, and requiring a computer with 192GB of RAM to stitch together!

Peruvian Panos

Because I’ve been quiet for a while, thought I’d leak some of my Peruvian Panoramas taken during my 2007 trip through Peru (and Bolivia). I took 50+ such pano’s and hope to showcase them one day, as they are stunning when viewed large. Both these are composed out of 10 images, and you can see Machu Picchu in the center of the lower image.

I must also apologize for the watermarks, but you can thank Century 21 Real Estate for that, considering they stole several of my images a while back, photoshopping out my watermark and using them for marketing purposes (online, in-store, and even printed out copies as handouts when a good friend of mine posed as a “buyer”). I subsequently brought them to court, and they squashed it. You would think an international [albeit incompetent] firm like C21 could afford to support a local artist… but you would be wrong. SHAME ON YOU CENTURY 21.
