There’s currently an image making the rounds on facebook that’s purported to be from a Chinese satellite. The photo is a panorama of a city, but is so massive and detailed that you can zoom in and clearly see people’s faces. Whether or not a satellite actually took the photo (spoiler: it didn’t ) this type of image isn’t actually new, it’s called gigapixel photography and is the result of thousands of images stitched together. It means that in this massive cityscape:
you can zoom in and find this man:
And that’s our game. Periodically (read: when work isn’t murdering me) I’ll post up a gigapixel photo for everyone to explore. I’ll give a list of a few things to find, but you’re also encouraged to explore and share cool stuff you found on your own. So let’s begin with this photo of Vancouver, !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! In addition to the man on the ladder try to find the following:
Forester XT
VW Bus
Roofers on break
Porsche 911 glitching the matrix
Dog park
Hawkeye WRX
Pile of chairs on a roof
Minghai
Lufthansa Airlines jet
Cotton Mouth Smoke Shop
Bonus of one internet to the most interesting car spotted

Well I found your roof guy and the 911s. Here’s a Previa work truck:
HFV has no HFV. But somehow has 2 motorcycles

Also found Cotton Mouth, but I don’t think this is the VW bus you’re looking for:

Ooh, I couldn’t find that, but seeing your picture, I knew exactly where it was. A bunch of interesting cars on that street, plus another two items from the list, along with the WRX.

You could lie down naked on your near solar noon every day for a week and be pretty sure that some spy agency will have a photo of it

Bravo, you caught a lot of them. I actually found a surprising number of VW buses/v ans. I’m willing to accept any of them.
Hard to give hints on Minghai without completely giving it away. Would it help if I said THE Minghai?
