You can use the roller on your mouse, or use the bar on the left side of the page to navigate and got in really close.

What a surveillance tool this is. Your can actually see people over half a mile away on rooftops. (Probably Secret Service Agents).

This picture was taken with a robotic camera and with 1,474 megapixel. (295 times the standard 5 megapixel camera).

It was a Canon that pulled together over 200 individual shots.

Each zoom in takes a second to focus ...and then you can see some amazing reactions.

Bonus points if you find Yo-Yo Ma .... taking a picture with his iPhone.

WOW...What a great shot. I can't even fathom what it must have been like to be there and experience Obama's inauguration.

You can practically read their sheet music.

The 2 million get out by themselves.

The 1/2 million were waiting for Proper busses as the air conditioned Skool Busses were below the dignity of welfare folk to ride.

Self Esteem trumps life!

If you look carefully in some areas you can see where the individual shots were stitched together. In the middle of the high stands to the president's left for instance. Find the gal in the bright blue coat, pan left to see the people with distorted faces. Does this mean there were some two-faced people in attendance?
