World's largest 230 million pixels digital photograph

Graham Diprose and his team in London have created a world record by shooting the world's largest digital photograph from a single camera position. The gigantic photograph of Gas Street Canal Basin, Birmingham City centre, stands at 230 million pixels and composed of 14 images joined together with the help of CreoStitcher and Adobe Photoshop CS2 software on a high-spec Apple G5 computer.

Creating the world's largest photograph is an amazing feat. It took a team of five, many hours of planning and many days waiting for favourable weather conditions. We wanted to show a vibrant scene with lots of interest, detail and activity; the regenerated canal space of Gas Street Canal Basin brings so much to our record breaking image. It has a wonderful contrast of historical buildings against dramatic modern architecture that form an extremely interesting shot full of detail, texture and life.
