How about ‘gigapixels’? All seventeen of them!

This image of Glacier Point is, apparently, the largest known stitched image. Made from 2046 images, it weighs in at a whopping 96.5GB, and covers 59ft x 22ft when printed at 300dpi.

Check out the images and be sure to use the ‘zoomify’ mode to view them. It’s just amazing how much detail has been captured. I could spend all day looking at them!
