2987 - Mont Blanc


Mont Blanc has a new distinction. It's now been photographed by a special camera that has made it the biggest photograph ever, 365 gigapixels. As impressive as that might be, it's sort of like looking at google earth. You can zoom in and out to see great detail. From this picture you can zoom in on climbers on the mountain.


But don't click on this picture. It has it's own website HERE. You will have + and - buttons to zoom in and out. But look at the lower left. Click the tour button. Then click the red dots to have them point out spots on interest on the mountain. It's like climbing without the risk.

Mike, that is really amazing. Such clarity in the photo, and you are right that you almost feel like you are right there. Love technology!
