Justice Thomas, it’s time for your close-up.

February 4, 2009 By Mark Kleiman @markarkleiman

A friend points me to an astounding photo of the inauguration. He writes:

Use your mouse to center the picture where you want. Click the control to keep zooming in to the center. You can focus anywhere in a half mile radius around the President and zoom in tight enough to see the eyebrows of anyone in the picture.

Click on the link at the bottom to open picture. The control for the picture is in the upper left. Press the + sign to zoom in, or the arrows to move right, left, up or down. If the picture looks

fuzzy give it a second to clarify.*

This is a remarkable panorama of the inauguration. It might not work well with a dial-up modem, but you can actually focus in on faces near the back of the crowd- nearly 1/2 mile!

For fun, focus on Obama (center stage) and then look behind him. There’s Clarence Thomas seemingly asleep, Dick Cheney in his wheelchair, Clinton, Gore, Bush 41 and even Dan Quayle! Scalia is sitting there looking like the Grand Inquisitor.

The technology is truly amazing- and it’s un-classified! Imagine what our spy agencies can see with classified technology.
