Paris Gigantic 26-Gigapixel Panorama
16 Mar
If, like me, you’ve never been to Paris, this might be a good introduction. Paris 26 Gigapixel is an amazing panoramic picture of the city, created by Martin Loyer, Arnaud Frich and Kolor.
Paris 26 Gigapixels is a stitching of 2346 single photos showing a very high-resolution panoramic view of the French capital (354159×75570 px). Dive into the image and visit Paris like never before!
You can move around by clicking anywhere on the image and moving your mouse, and you can zoom with your mouse wheel (alternatively, you can use the arrows and +/- keys on the keyboard). It’s easy to get overwhelmed by this huge panorama, so there’s a quick of 20 of Paris’ most impressive monuments.
There are also some easter eggs hidden in the picture. Can you find them?
- a Kolor advertisement
- a reblochon (french savoyard cheese) with a Kolor logo on it
- a turtle
- a groundhog
- a frog playing guitar
- a couple of UFOs
- a photo of the team (a grafitti on a wall)
- a licence plate on a car with the Kolor website
- a Pi (3:14) clock
- a red traffic light (3 red traffic lights in one)
And if you look carefully, you might even find odd things that weren’t placed there by the authors. Like this gun…
Happy window hunting!
