Olympics

The Opening Ceremonies of any Olympic Games is always a spectacle to behold — and Getty Images is set to capture the London Olympic's like never before seen. Getty has partnered with Fujitsu to create a planned 20-gigapixel image of the event, which will go up online overnight after the event, and be posted to Getty Images UK.

The Olympic Games are all about setting records, but why leave it just to the athletes? London Artist Clare Newton is attempting to create the world's longest photograph in time for the London Olympics. She’s been working on the project, called Jump4London, for nearly two years, photographing thousands of children and adults from all walks of life across London. She’s combined the over 109,000 images of people jumping into a giant panorama photograph that stretches over 1 kilometer (nearly a mile) long.
