This “image stitching” stuff is really wonderful.
Here’s Inuvik’s Samuel Hearne school (still boarded up for the summer) in super-high resolution.
(Note: some of the stuff like the telephone wires don’t exactly line up. I am still learning.)

I wonder who I know down to Inuvik that I can pay to steal your camera and mail it to me?
Between this and suggesting I pie the PM, you’re on a crime spree!
Seriously though, the whole point of this image is that it’s about five or six images seamlessly “stitched” together through this program I just got called Doubletake (30 bucks Canadian!)
There does not appear to be a limit to the amount of images you can stitch, so it’s now possible to take super-resolution photos. (Just so long as nothing is moving.)
You can expect I’ll be having some fun with this…including some 360-degree pans.
When you think about image stitching, you could also do: A runner starting the race, running, running and finishing…all on a continuous background! four images in a sequence.
It would be pretty awesome, I need to try this.
If your camera is fast enough, you could take a dozen pictures of a bird flying or something, and do one of those fancy montages like… well I don’t remember who does them, but somewhere out there, someone does fancy montages of the same animal every small fraction of a second.
