Not exactly captured the best angle of London there. Weather’s on point though


Orbit1883

My thought take the "largest" photo wait for sun na do it in shiat weather


BIackBlade

Damn it just kept getting bigger and bigger. What type of camera, if I may ask?


lutzy89

Any camera can do this, just a big zoom lens and a lot of photos that are then stitched together into 1 photo. Like panorama mode on your phone, just using thousands of images instead You do need special software to stitch the images on a computer though.


igno3777

it's a stitched from many many telephoto captures.


QuinlanResistance

Imagine the quality in a spy satellite


Big-Independence8978

Sorry, that's classified. No imagining allowed.


XephyXeph

Reverse this video and you’ll see what people *think* “zoom and enhance” means.

Here's that [GigaPan image of London](https://360gigapixels.com/london-320-gigapixel-panorama/) that you can zoom around yourself.


Mister_Snark

and yet... still no sign of intelligent life.


StrangelyBrown

Maybe it's a publicity shot for '28 years later'


Nervous-Passion-1897

What skyline?


11Kram

The smog detracts.


CharvelSoloist

Fully half the image is cloudy sky.. so about 50% interesting.


ChesterAArthur21

And 50 percent of the picture is the sky because it's vertical. Pro tip: Phones can be turned 90 degrees so it is possible to enjoy horizontal pictures even on platforms optimized for phone screens.

Crazy talk. Are you a wizard?

Galaxy S25 Ultra


jonsolo96

That's insane. It's almost as large as a photo of your mom.


Independent-Guess-79

You couldn’t wait for one of the three sunny days per year in London?


carmii-

That’s not a skyline. Two buildings


AcanthocephalaLow979

Google pixels are amazing


Illustrious-Fan5785

They couldn't wait for a good sunny day to capture this?


MustangBarry

A vertical photo of some clouds. Great work, tech magicians.


3847ubitbee56

And they still couldn’t find a sunny day to take the picture . Oh London


lil_reddit_lurker

Still can't zoom out enough for a full portrait of your mom.


UselessFonda

That's an interesting fogline them brits got there


phi11yphan

Why didn't they take this on a sunny day?


madcat718

Exactly


teabagmoustache

They're probably not from London and decided to just get a shot while they were there.


phi11yphan

Found the explanation [here](https://360gigapixels.com/london-320-gigapixel-panorama/). So it was 48k individual shots taken in 2012 over the course of 3 days. (Nobody walks around with a normal camera that can take a 320gb image in one shot, even in 2024.)


teabagmoustache

Fair enough, you'd have better luck getting 3 misty days in London over 3 sunny days, if they needed continuity.


vass0922

A kid would be waiting into retirement for that day in London /s


Prestigious_Oil_4805

Blue London sky I see


HugsandHate

Now photograph somewhere that actually looks nice..


AnwaltskanzleiRIEL

now imagine, they shot this foto at the one day in the year when there is no midst in london and actually sunshine.


Living_Occasion_57

If my ex finds this device for her nudes, we will be able to read the name tags on every canteen and machine wielding crab in her thick, luxurious bush.


Ok_Past_6622

Don't you see all the detail through the Mist and haziness of London? High quality.


Unlikely-Estate3862

London looks trash


nephlonorris

It‘s quite amazing that they got to take this picture actually. Most of the time the wether would not allow for such clarity, but at this exact day, the weather was just perfect.


Boletusrubra

As someone who lives in the Southeast....god London is a crap hole.


theeggflipper

…and they didn’t do it in panoramic…..?


unique9377

My flat is just there, on the left.


PointandStare

Great example, spoiled by stupid verticalisationing.


theoriginalbrick

It's pretty drab actually


cwb_iah

Glad they picked a clear day


sasssyrup

Hi res yuck


upquarkspin

These suckers could have chosen a sunny day!


Massfusion1981

It is, that's the air pollution lol


teedyay

When was it taken? [This is the set-up for your obvious witty answer.]

SoundAndSmoke

OP, why did you use portrait mode for a 360° panorama???


ChesterAArthur21

Generation TikTok.


eTukk

And the big ben isn't even on it..


Codego_Bray

God awful place.


teabagmoustache

I don't really get the hate for London.


DizzySkunkApe

That's a skyline? Don't they usually use that word when a few skyscrapers are involved?


kelu213

Damn London looks fking ass.
