Came across a couple of amazing shots of last week’s Presidential Inauguration.
First up was the photo that made most of the front pages the day after. A ‘never done before’ fantastic wide angle low down shot of the First Family during Obama’s oath.

A huge amount of effort went into getting this shot from a remote controlled camera. The story behind this photo is told by DC Photographer Greg Gibson on his blog
I also came across this amazing 1.4 GIGAPIXEL wide angle photo of the events of the day.
The details as you zoom in is just incredible. I spent ages just panning around the crowd seeing what they were upto. You can almost see Obama’s nose hairs
The image is actually 220 seperate image stitched together. The story behind it’s creation is here.
