Re: [APML] OT an incredible photo of ground zero
Tony,
It would be incredible to see this in full quality and at full
resolution. The problem with the posted image is that has quite
severe JPEG compression artefacts - this may not be too visible in the
browswer but it can be seen clearly in Photoshop. It looks like it
has been saved as JPEG at high compression or re-saved 2 or 3 times at
medium compression.

Chris,
I recognize the rebate
edges of this original... it was taken with an aerial camera on huge
sheet film, it is usually something like 9" X 9" square. This
image only hints at the real resolution of these cameras... I have worked
with these originals back in the Hallas Photo Lab days... they can go to
60 X 60 and still be crisp. They are usually shot on very fine grain
film.
