It's a large panoramic landscape that you can zoom into, down to
individual bricks on buildings. You have to see it to believe it.
The first time I tried the link I got a black page, then second time I
tried I got the image.
There's a wow factor here of a very different sort than I'm used to
looking for in a picture, and a really new way to think of photography.
I hope you enjoy it.

Very good example- Thanks
I can remember the olden days when the web was all dial-up, and
pictures always came in in low resolution and gradually built up to
full detail over a few seconds.
I don't remember whey this process went away, maybe when we got
cable. Does anyone else remember that effect?
