the ultimate panorama

i dare you to try to make a giant panorama from 3000 pictures, each with varying background lighting.

I um... no.. wow? yea, wow. im gonna go with wow.

too bad bungie only lets you take 50 screenshots

otherwise i'd make one right away, of course.

i wonder what software they used,PS crashes for me at about 15 - 20 pics.
nice sig by the way.

that's a good question. I wouldn't doubt it if they used some form of Photomerge, but on some super good science like computer.

this is going to be going to planetariums in the future. i'd love to go and see it.

If you guys need any CPU power, I have it.
I have a 3.06 ghz dual core with 4 gigs of ram.

ha. thats a lot but not nearly enough to do what that guy did.

I know....
It would also take up a ton of space... i'm guessing upwards of at least 2 terabytes.
