Here is a great example of Blow Up used in the real world. Christian Popkes created a dramatic outdoor photo installation at the Schömberg Photo Festival in the Black Forest. Blow Up made the huge prints possible. They are about three meters tall!

Great looking blow-Ups, I love it.
Looks very impressive.
Some background info on the images would be useful
i.e., what was the capture format etc
Very Cool Indeed!!! Love it.
Very impressive but I suspect the original files were also pretty large! Definitely interested in what they were taken with.
I agree! Very nice enlargements, but were these shot medium format digital or a cell phone? I joke about the cell phone, but knowing the medium of capture is paramount.
Thanks!

Hi Jason,
It was a medium format camera. I checked with Christian about these shots. He used a 39MP Hasselblad which produces an image of 5412 x 7212 pixels. The images still underwent significant enlargement to get to the size shown in the article.
