This site is a really cool way to check out Paris. While Google maps or Earth lets you zoom in and check out the satellite view of just about anywhere in the world, Paris 26 Gigapixels is an incredible photographic feat. They shot pictures from the tower of Saint Sulpice using a Cannon 5D Mark 2 with 300 mm tele converter. They then had to stitch together 2346 images into 138 columns and 17 rows and had to render the raw panoramic image using an incredibly powerful server lent to them by Intel. It came out to a total of 354159 x 75570 pixels for a total of 26,763,795,630 pixels... thus the name Paris 26 Gigapixels
