Impressive photo size and zooming capacities, but I prefer Jean François Rauzier's Hyper photos.

Not sharp; uninteresting subject, ugly foreground, bad weather, botched up skies,poor colors. In all: FUGLY indeed! BUGLY too!

Seen better. In this case I prefer smaller and nicer.

Truly ugly - an excellent example of running for numbers rather that for quality. Huge resolution is useless (or even counter-productive) when the overall result looks bad.
