Amazing. I especially like the Golden Gate bridge one where you see the a boat only in the third or so zoom in.

Every time I look at something like that, I get an incredible urge to spend all the money I have on a nice camera.

You know I think the same was said about the Gigahertz by Bill Gates in a speech early in his career. But it’s always good to keep going! Look at the advancements in chips: http://money.cnn.com/2005/02/07/technology/cell_chip.reut/index.htm?cnn=yes

Wow! Those are some awesome images!

I don't even think our naked eye can see that much detail..

Those are wonderful. You don't even need to go to those places. You'll probably see more looking at the pictures than actually being there in person! [Wink]

But honestly, those are lovely. I wish I was on a computer with a better monitor. (Public school teacher computers aren't the best.) [Smile]

That is a very cool project. Much cooler than simply showing off the bestest camera.

Thanks for the link!
