16 Billion Pixel Photo

Tedz · #1 (**permalink**) 11-06-2008, 23:13

Using a Nikon D2X Digital SLR, a high tech Italian Firm took 9 hours to shoot the Picture, making 1,677 Exposures of 12 Megapixels. Robot controlled.
The Image is of Leonardo da Vinci's "Last Supper"
Haltadefinizione
Cheers, Tedz *salute*

Sorry Tedz....missed the link.
Checked it out, and it works just fine.

Nice soft image too, very similar to the one Bronik shot of Jesus for Hasselblad earlier this year. (ofcourse I was an extra)
The book will be printed in September.

Was expecting the image to be a little larger tho.
Especially with how many pixels again?......16 billion?..... my oh! my.

* salute *

Tedz, that is very impressive, thank you for the link.

Joseph, did you click on the image itself on the page? It opens a larger version so you can scroll and zoom into it.

Going back for another look! LOL

Hi there Tedz,

Quote....(You do seem to get these *bit parts* ...)
Yes quite true...but I don't think that I will be able to Post a copy this time. As the Bakehouse Studios, and Bronek was the photographer, was on commission for Hasselblad. And they loaned him/them the latest model Hasselblad a 39 meg pixel Camera for the Cologne Photo Expo in Sept.
So I would imagine that the copyright will belong to Hasselblad.
10 photographers were chosen from around the world, with the Bakehouse Studios being just one of them.

Cheers,

Hello there Fay,

You know I can't believe that Hasselblad didn't contact "the Mountain Lady" as their eleventh photrapher,
and besides I would have been only to happy to model for you............as well!.....Would have been real fun.

Bronek shot a wonderful series over about four days.
Just can't wait to see the stuff that the other nine photographers did.
One was a women I think specializing in wedding photography.
But don't know much of the others except that they all came from different countries.

Bronek will be flowen to Germanly at Hasselblad's expense for the show,
............ofcourse I hope that they remember me?.............
And will be given a book for free, so we will get to see the work of the other photograghers.

If I can get a copy........I will show you the add that I did for Sony.
But once again...........I think that the copyright will be a problem?

Cheers Fay,
Arrived back from my holiday last night,
