 I'm a big fan of Quicktime VR and I've made a few panoramics of Lamma Island and other scenic Hong Kong spots but this really takes the cake.

David Bergman has made a 1474 Megapixel image of the inauguration.  He goes into detail about how he made it on his blog. 
It's fascinating zooming in and looking for details.There's a guy in a wheelchair and you can read the serial number off the back. Can you find it?
