    Found you guys! Actually found you twice. Once giving the thumbs up sitting down and again up the stairs holding the camera next to the floating head. Very cool picture. Machu Picchu is definitely on my bucket list. Keep the awesome videos coming. Getting smarter everyday.

    Go to the image... go tot he building at the highest, zoom in, look at the guy in the stripped shirt. There is a floating head.

    • @theeflea03

      not just the floating head, that's him in the stripped shirt...

    • @markfourth531
      @markfourth531 7 років тому +2

      maybe that's just because he move after the panorama taken in frames by frame.

    • @LTL_king
      @LTL_king 6 років тому

      He wasn't there when the 1st picture was taken.
      They took pictures of the entire scene then went down and got another photo with them in it and overlapped them.
      They lady had since moved.
      At ua-cam.com/video/kfLH5_RWZH4/v-deo.htmlm4s in you can see the individual frames.

    • @xelle1649
      @xelle1649 6 років тому +1

      There are also two people with missing lower halves, and a lady whose legs are screwed up. I was also able to find multiple clones as well. It's because multiple pictures were taken, then strung together into one big image. So people on the borders of the images will especially be affected.

    This is so amazing Destin! This, accompanied with your personal tour of Machu Picchu was awe-inspiring and amazing! You're right, I don't know if I'll ever have the funds to go there so I am so fortunate and so thankful that you planned this and decided to share it free on youtube to everyone! Thank you!

    Why do you need a permit to take some pictures..?

    • @partlycurrent
      @partlycurrent 9 років тому +5

      You can take fotos without permission! As long as they are for personal use.
      Professional videos or fotos require permission

    • @petertimowreef9085
      @petertimowreef9085 9 років тому +5

      partlycurrent
      Ah ok that makes a lot more sense. I can imagine that professional productions can be bothersome if they bring large crews or a lot of equipment.
      I thought it was just a shady way to get some extra money from tourists, I guess I'm a bit too cynical :).

    • @CookieeMonstarr666
      @CookieeMonstarr666 8 років тому

      If you wonder why, well it's their properties.
      Like if i go to your home, taking pictures of your room and advertise it, people like it maybe you room is awesome.
      But what i did is wrong, i should pay royalty to you. In this case he wasn't selling anything so a permit would be the last thing he need.

    • @petertimowreef9085
      @petertimowreef9085 8 років тому

      Nobody lives in Machu Pichu. It's not a home in that sense.

    • @CookieeMonstarr666
      @CookieeMonstarr666 8 років тому +4

      Peter Timowreef It belongs to the country, the government's properties, artifacts, monument. The one who asked for permit is not the one who live there, idk for real i assume they are working there.

    My favorite part is zooming in on the mountain behind Machu Piccu -- it's called Huayna Piccu and you can see the elaborate terraces built to sustain living and planting. I was a difficult climb when I was there and much of what has now been uncovered was still overgrown with vegetation. Thanks for your work on this and sharing it!

    The binaural delay is what gives you the most information about a sound's location, both in the left-right plane as well as the distance of the sound. That's why I tend to use the ORTF stereo miking method when I want good depth and 3D audio field.

    Also, aside from the fact that they're not claiming to have a photo with the highest resolution of all time - the photo you described of the Orion Nebula would not even come close to the same resolution. A photo of 18000 x 18000 pixels would "only" equal 324 Megapixels. This photo of Machu Picchu is 16 Gigapixels (16000 Megapixels) or about 50 times as detailed as the Orion Nebula photo that you described.

  • @midgers123321
    @midgers123321 12 років тому

    I checked out the photo. Very nice :) I have some questions though:
    Some walls are, as you said, polished to fit perfectly, some use mortar and some are just loose. why did they use different techniques? Did the polished stone walls mean important buildings?
    The mountain is fairly inaccessible so where did they get the rocks from?And what about water? they were too high for wells and a daily hike down a mountain seems too much effort.
    Come to think of it why did they build on a mountain?

  • @danleach8266

    Destin,
    Recently subscribed. Looking forward to more videos. Saw the panoramic picture of the Ashlar Wall in Machu Picchu. I'm thinking Cyclopean masonry with mud and sentiment used to reinforce the stone around the window-ways and top. Do I need a little more?

  • @Ziggax

    there's a few glitches in this photo that I found:
    1) at the top of the stairway in the bottom left corner of the photo there is a woman in the doorway wearing a white and black striped shirt. There seems to be a head superimposed over hers.
    2) On the right side of the large field a long stairway runs down towards us. A head hovers at the foot of the man in light blue walking down from the top
    3) at the top of this stairway, there are floating legs.
    There are probably more, try and find em

    Destin is actually in the picture twice - once with his thumbs up sign pretty much dead center of the picture, and once directly above that about 40 meters higher up facing away holding up a camera to the right of that woman's floating head - wearing the plaid shirt and shorts in both cases. Jeff is on the left (highest) elevation buildings, farthest one to the left right beside the large boulder outcrop with moss on it, standing alone inside what looks to be an evenly leveled structure.
