It’s been a little while since we’ve
seen one of those massive pictures that seemed to be released one
after the other last year, but the folks at Getty images are prepping
to make one of their own this Friday at the Olympic Opening
Ceremonies.
The picture will be 20-gigapixels worth
of detail and will be available to view on the Getty
Images site on the morning of Saturday the 28th.
“The Opening Ceremony Gigapixel image
is the result of just one of the new technologies we are embracing,
to ensure London 2012 is captured like no other Games,” says Getty
SVP Adrian Murrell. “The Games are always synonymous with world
records being broken and iconic moments being captured; with over
70,000 people expected at the Opening Ceremony, this image will
capture this momentous occasion in innovative, high-resolution
detail.”
