Photographer David Bergman was covering Barack Obama’s historical inauguration when he shot the above image at an amazing 1474 megapixel resolution. The photo consists of 220 individual pictures taken with a Canon G10 strapped to a Gigapan Imager. The final image is, understandbly, huge at  59,783 x 24,658 pixels and almost 2gb in size. The level of detail is simply incredible. You can zoom right into every single person’s face, practically. Is it me, or is Bush playing a Gameboy?
