This kinda puts ya "10 shot panorama" in the bin.

Facts:
Shot from the BT Tower
4x Canon 7D cameras shooting for 3 days
3 months of processing
320 giga-pixel.
48,640 individual frames
If printed at normal photographic resolution, it would be 98 meters across and 24 meters tall

hi guys,

been using the forum for a little while now but this is my first post in the photographic section.

just thought you might like this:

It's a great twist on panoramic photography, the London skyline with interactive sections. the sound bites are awesome, birds singing in Hackney marshes, monkeys at london zoo... it's such a good idea imo
