    Huge WTC photo

    A 9372x9372, 1060DPI satellite photo of the World Trade Center area, anyone?

    http://www.theloki.org/wtc-photo-big.jpg

    Right click save as, I'd recommend. It's 14MB.

    VERY impressive isn't it?

    When I read the thread title I thought you were being a right sicko but I've downloaded the picture and it does have a scary amount of detail in it. They really must be able to track you via satellite these days (not that I've been watching enemy of the state too much or anything!)

    I managed to get hold of a 500meg TIFF image of the earth (i think it was the earth) once, but could never open it at the time cause i didnt have enough ram and pagefiling it took too long.
    I dont like sig pics so i turn off sigs Which doesnt help when i dont know what ive written here! DOH!

    Its an amazing photo. Very scary to see the amout of damage for yourself. All the burnt out cars in a carpark. Horrible.

    Its not a satellite photo by the way, it looks like its been taken high up with a wide angle lens by some sort of plane/blimp/baloon type thing.

    Shocking.

    Wherever it was taken from, it must have been with some SERIOUS photography equipment. Judging by the borders it's probably some permanently airborne thing like from a plane or blimp as you said.
