Size is everything... (in digital photos)
Size seems to be becoming everything in digital imagery. The best of my cameras is a humble 4 megapixels - completely dwarfed by the recently published 2.5 Gigapixel image, supposedly the world's first. The view from a Dutch sykscraper is a combination of 600 images which produced a 7.5Gb file. Experience it!
It's not just a Dutch thing though. Another combined image, 350 photos this time is 3.8 Gigapixels and shows an amazing view of downtown Boston. Try zooming in to appreciate the quality... and hope it doesn't crash your browser! Click for the bigger picture.

Thanks for the link! Just one quick correction on the www.xrez.com site. It was 350 images for a 3.8 Gigapixel image.
No worries - thanks for being my first commenter!!! I'll correct the post, 40,000 x 90,000 isn't very readable.
