I ran across this photographer, Ryan Brenizer, when looking through a bunch of links to cool photos that my mom sent me. He has some really incredible photos and uses a panoramic stitching technique to create an impossibly shallow depth of field in his photographs.
He explains his technique here. Has anyone seen or heard of anything like this? I thought this was really neat and wanted to share.
This links back to an album of photos where he uses his technique, and he also has a video that shows him actually doing the technique in times square (its in the second half of the video.)
Here is one example:

| Thanks for posting this, his work really is interesting. I'm trying to get my head around the amount of time to create one "final" image. It seems a bit daunting. The end result is undeniably interesting. I'd love to see a PS tutorial on his process. |

The real magic would be to see a very large print from effectively a large format digital camera.
As for the shallow DOF, if that is your only goal, it can be achieved through post processing without the multiple exposures. |

Yup. The way I've done it in the past is to create several duplicate pixel layers and then blur each one incrementally and then blend them altogether, all using masks of course. I find that the lens blur filter is better to work with than the other blurs available in photoshop.

| Yeah it's true that it can be done in photoshop, but there is something so cool about his lighting that seems so real that may be a result from being able to use such a shallow depth of field when shooting the different areas of the frame. I am not quite sure but I like the result a lot and thought it would be cool to share. |
