this is the most amazing picture of obama ...

I received the following on an email earlier today and thought some HC'ites might enjoy this.

This is the most AMAZING PICTURE of Barack Obama's inauguration address. And it's a bit of fun too!

Who has heard of Gigapan before???

Click on the above hyper-link to open the picture. The control for the picture is in the upper left. Press the + sign to zoom in, or the arrows to move right, left, up or down. If the picture looks fuzzy give it a second to clarify.

This is a remarkable panorama of the inauguration. It might not work well with a dial-up modem, but you can actually focus in on faces near the back of the crowd - nearly 800 metres!

For fun, focus on Obama (center stage) and then look behind him. There's Clarence Thomas seemingly asleep, Dick Cheney in his wheelchair, Clinton, Gore, Bush 41 and even Dan Quayle! Scalia is sitting there looking like the Grand Inquisitor. The clarity is amazing!

The technology is truly amazing- and it's un-classified! Imagine what our spy agencies can see with classified technology.

Enjoy!

Cheers, Pie :)
