Pretty amazing stuff considering how close you can zoom.

wow is right, thought it was just garbage on the ground in the middle at the bottom, but it was a ton of tents. really puts it in perspective.

Press F11 in browser and print screen. Not the best way to do it, but it works kinda ;p

Anyone else zoom in very close and slowly scroll from bottom where the tents are, to the top of the mountain? "Pretending to climb mountain in the comfort of a warm home" >;D

I want to know what kind of equipment they are using that can generate gigapixels, not megapixels..
edit oh, it's a composite image made up of many shots. incredible.
