"I made a panoramic image showing the nearly two million people who
watched President Obama’s inaugural address. To do so, I clamped a
Gigapan Imager to the railing on the north media platform about six
feet from my photo position. The Gigapan is a robotic camera mount
that allows me to take multiple images and stitch them together,
creating a massive image file.
My final photo is made up of 220 Canon G10 images and the file is
59,783 X 24,658 pixels or 1,474 megapixels. It took more than six and
a half hours for the Gigapan software to put together all of the
images on my Macbook Pro and the completed TIF file is almost 2
gigabytes.
Use the controls to zoom and pan around the photo. You can also double
click to zoom in and double click again to get even closer." --- David

A mind-boggling "Where's Waldo?" hunt!
So far, I found Yo-Yo Ma taking a picture and Newt Gingrich looking
suitably bored (annoyed?).
