Looking at the 30 yard marker there is a photog with his Nikon, next to him is a headless Nikon user?? Not the side with the orange space heater.

Yeah, their "gigapixel" camera could use some improvements on seaming together the nearer objects. ;)

Yeah, their stitching process could be a little better I guess! I have a headless soldier standing a few feet away from me. I'm the third person from the left, standing kinda out in the open with the blue-ish knee pads:



I was very tempted to run over to the other side of the field while they were shooting it so I could be in the picture twice :)

My brother (on the right) obviously knew when the camera was on him :)

I needed that extra arm to carry my other camera.

THAT he's not allowed to do, sadly. I think he got dressed down for it once; NFL is really strict with how they allow these images to be displayed. I shot on the sidelines during Chargers games in the early-mid 80's, and even then there wasn't squat-all I could do with my images except let the magazine I was working for publish them. I had a great shot of Hank Bauer exulting after a playoff victory, and made a 40-60 blowup of it and GAVE it to him, and I got in trouble for THAT, LOL...
