I stumbled upon this website that boasts this pretty awesome photo of Machu Picchu that was taken by photographer Scott Howard. The cool thing about this photo is that it is interactive, you can zoom in or out anywhere on the photo.
Howard took this photo after completing the infamous Inca trail hike (took him about 4 days to complete). Here is the Link to his website where you can interact with the actual photo.
The Photo was taken with the following specs:
Total Resolution 1500 MegaPixels (approx 60,000 x 26,000 pixels)

Wow, that's awesome! Thank you for posting the link!
Yeah I thought it was pretty amazing. The guy put in a ton of work plus he had to carry all that equipment along the Inca Trail. That's a serious workout.
