Six well-known photographic artists collectively known as The Legacy Project, aided by 400 volunteers, artists, and experts have created The Great Picture, a photograph that is the world's largest photograph. Guinness Book of Records had pre- approved it and is now evaluating applications in two categories: world's largest photograph and camera. The official certificates issued on July 2007 in London, Guinness states: "The largest camera was created from an airplane hanger measuring 13.71 x 48.76 x 24.38 m (45 x 160 x 80 ft). The camera produced a photograph on canvas measuring 9.62 x 33.83 m (31ft 7in x 111ft). The attempt was organized by The Legacy Project at the Marine Corps Air Station El Toro, California, USA in June 2006." You can view this photo from September 6 through 29, 2007 at Art Center College of Design, South Campus, Pasadena, California.
