CBC News | Arts | Biggest Photo Story
“A team of photographers vying to create the world’s largest photo has successfully created a giant image of a former marine base in California this week.”
“Since the 1930s, CBC News services have kept Canadians at home and abroad informed about their communities, their country and the world.”
Fascinating! They took a piece of fabric eight stories tall and 30+ yards wide an coated it with photo-sensitive emulsion.
THEN they turned the hangar inside which the “film” was suspended into a pinhole camera (camera obscura).
Once they exposed it then they had to go about chemically developing the image.
“A” for effort!
Thanks to Jeff Rankin-Lowe on PNN for this.
