I was really interested in Soul Solutions Birds Eye Photo Mosaic of Sydney Opera House. It is one of those things that is completely pointless but utterly cool.
It caught my interest as I have a weird habit of taking pictures of decaying doors. Here is one of them:
Now I have hundreds of these door photos and I have always be wondering what to do with them. So I thought a photo mosaic with deep zoom would be an ideal thing to have my 1st stab at Silverlight with…
I followed the same steps as Soul Solutions (using Andrea Mosaic which really is awesome).
First I made a photomosaic of a Berlin door out of photos of doors in Berlin:
Then I used Deep Zoom Composer to make the Silverlight project. It was all surprisingly easy (you do not even need to use Visual Studio).
You need to see it in silverlight to get the real effect. Here is the silverlight page (use your mouse wheel to zoom in/out and left drag to pan). You will be promted download Silverlight if you haven’t already.
Needlesss to say I am now a Silverlight convert!
