I have specialized in Gigapixel Wall Mural Photos for many years. Recently I decided to get into Classic and Muscle Cars using the skills I have developed over the years. This is a image I shot just recently.
-This is my friends 1970 SS Chevelle that he generously allowed me to photograph. The engine is a 503 Cubic inch 500+ HP LS-3 equipped with a throttle body fuel injection system.
Some 2871 individual focus bracketed photos went into creating this. Shot with Canon 5R, 200mm lens, f/13, 1/125th sec., 400 ISO. These were focus stacked to create a 5 row x 13 column set of focus stacked images that were stitched to form an image with the hood of the car closed. I shot a second set of images consisting of the middle 3 rows x 13 columns with the hood open. I focus stacked each image set with Helicon Focus software. I then imported all the focus stacked images into PTGui and stitched them together creating a version with hood closed and a second image with the hood open. I then imported both images as layers into Photoshop. I masked off the area of the hood in the hood closed version to allow the engine to be visible trough the hood.
The original image is: 1.55 Giga-pixels, 31,996 x 48,465 pixels, 106" x 161" 300 PPI un- cropped image size. 8 ft. 10 in. x 13 ft. 5 in., 300PPI
