Huge Pano From Zion National Park

Posted by Marc on May 18, 2007.

Here is one of my first online Zoomify images. It is made up of 58 images in 3 rows of 19. This 332 Megapixel image's dimensions are 33,649 x 9,879 pixels. I have a print of this image that is 16 x 63 inches at over 500 DPI. The largest high quality print of this image at 240 DPI would be 126 inches long and 40 inches tall


I took this image from Angel's Landing looking to the South and West. Aside from all the technical details, the image is a nice representation of the scale and grandeur of Zion National Park. It is so hard to represent the expansiveness of a place on a computer screen. Printing these images in large formats can help, but grand panoramics are still very hard to transfer to the online format.


It is fun to zoom in on a single little tree somewhere in the image and then use the zoom slider below the image to pan back away from the image to see the little, tiny tree in its grand context.
