This shot was left over after the previous post on my New York City trip. It took 51 photos to make this panorama! Actually, there were originally 53 but the stitching program couldn't match two of them to the rest.
This is best seen in larger sizes so please click on the photo. The master image runs over 15,000 pixels wide--more than even Flickr could handle.

This is a really cool image, I amazed by it. I downloaded the really large version from Flickr just to see as much detail as possible. Very impressive. It also reminds me both of the panoramic shots from the Mars rovers as well as the cityscapes in the early days of photography when exposure times were so long that the people in them were merely hinted at by the blur they left in their wake. Thanks for putting in the work and sharing it!

I've written about this shot -- and you -- on my blog at http://themovingtarget.wordpress.com/2009/01/26/the-photo-of-barack-obamas-inauguration/
