Good on ya.. Ted!

Bob has been talking about this for quite awhile. He wasn't exaggerating about how super the images are...and will only be sharper as you perfect the process.

I notice on the 59099 image that in the upper right hand corner there is a large black inclusion that sports some artifacts that look like light reflections. Do you know what they are?

>For those who haven't played with gigapan images, The cool part is you can do some serious zooming! since the overall image is made up of a number of high resolution images, the potential is good. In these cases, 16 images were joined up to make a 120MB image. The focus still needs to be worked on. That's over at the original image side of things :-)? I hope the 50x ones are a bit crisper!

>If all goes well, we'll start a whole series of these! I'm looking forward to it.
