For the past 19 years, I've attended a festival (Twins Days) in
Twinsburg, Ohio every fall.
Every Saturday at 3:00 there is a "group photo" taken from the top of
a cherry-picker. Looks like this:
http://john.robinsontwins.org/twinsdays/group_shots/content/2008_large.html
This image has been taken with a Nikon D200 for the past couple of
years. Looks OK I guess (this is a scan of a print I'm pointing to now).
Last post on this subject!
This is the resulting image. Not great (I didn't "square the box" well
enough when putting the outlines on the ground) but everyone so far has
been very happy with the amount of detail/resolution. I'm told "I've
never been able to make out faces in the back" before. Happily, with
the K10D and DA16-50, I was able to do this even with the rain pouring
down. Oddly, it is difficult to discern that it is raining when you
look at the image.
The picture here is presented using the "Zoomify" export option from CS4
- mostly because I don't want anyone to have an easily-downloadable copy
of an image which they hopefully will want to PURCHASE from the
organizers of the festival.
I guess what I'm saying is: If you don't do FLASH you won't (sorry) be
able to see this. Otherwise - click to zoom if you so desire!

The colors sort of look drab after exporting through "zoomify". They're
a bit snappier in the real image. I didn't spend a lot of time trying
to figure out why...

That's pretty impressive, Charles. I zoomed all the way in and wandered
around the image and it's pretty darned clear all over. Seemed softer in
the front-left corner to me though--those kids there seem slightly
blurred compared to their counterparts over on the rhs. Just curious:
what's the shutter/aperture?
Great job!
