That's about 11 inch wide at 300 dpi. If you do some decent interpolation, it should print fine at a (much) larger size. "I think the idea of art kills creativity" - Douglas Adams

Interpolate, and maybe add a bit of noise. what is is interpolate? Canon 1D Mark II N/5D Mark III/ 6D/ 7D /85mm f1.2L Mk1/ 24-70 f2.8L/ 70-200mm f2.8L IS USM/ 100mm Macro f/2.8

Print out each pixel on a sheet of paper 1m square. Make sure the back of each sheet is labelled with the location of the pixel in the photograph. Assemble a large team of helpers and equip them with copious quantities of sticky tape. Find a farmer who is willing to let you borrow a field that is 3.5 km by 2.5 km. Wait for some good weather. Assemble the photo in the field. A few months later, look at it on Google Earth. (You might be able to get some sort of arts grant for a project like this.) HA HA HA!!! John Thompson
