Amazing Camera

Post by crook_101 »

Hiya,

For all of you photography buffs, this is a photo from the 2009 inauguration of Barak Obama.

You will see the face of each individual in the crowd - IN FOCUS as you zoom in !!! You can scan, double click and zoom into any section of the crowd... wait a few seconds... and the focus adjusts.

The picture was taken with a Robotic camera at 1,474 megapixels. (295 times the standard 5 megapixel camera)

Makes you wonder who's watching us right now !

Have fun,

Ian.

It is actually a mosaic of loads of pictures stitched together.......

Look at the bottom of the white tower thing - you will see a pair of legs without a body!

Good spot Mr wolfe,

It's a terrible thing when you finally find a seat and then your legs go walk about :D :D :D :D

There's also a ghostly hand trying to steal a security man's sunglasses :)

Follow the balustrade to Obama's right - the man in question is standing to the left of the light.

Actually Kitt, my son had shown me the pic a couple of weeks ago, and had pointed out the bodyless legs.......

I would not want anyone thinking I sit staring at the computer all day whilst at work!

Ok, I have no excuses -except to say its a quite workday.
Found another pair of legs going walkabout.
Follow the central isle (behind the rostrum cameras) towards the barriers in the backgound.
No I must find some work to do!

Her right hand under her privacy blanket might have something to do with it!

Notice theres a big lack of black folk's there. You would think it would look more like this.
