With the cold beating down on us hard right now in New York City, it is especially hard times for those who spend their days and nights on the City streets. YouTuber Rob Bliss recently had an idea to repurpose the Amazon Prime Now instant delivery service to help deliver needed goods to them in short time.

Note: this video is NOT SPONSORED OR AFFILIATED WITH AMAZON. I'm sure this technique could be used with Postmates or whoever else too. I simply wanted to demonstrate how easy and convenient it can be to bring a person in need, what they need, and to encourage that behavior.

Photographer Dan Piech of Vast Photos recently created this incredible photo that combined 105 individual high definition exposures snapped over the course of an evening into one massive 620 Megapixel photo of New York City.

Reveling in the scene, I began exposing the long-exposure images that make up the left-side nighttime portions of the final photo. The fervor of cars racing up the avenues into the heart of the city rendered a beautiful glow on the buildings. Over the course of two hours, I meticulously recorded every last high resolution detail of this nighttime winter wonderland using a long telephoto lens mounted on my Canon 5Ds which I rotated using an extremely precise gimbal.

The 10305 x 8088 image shown here is about 15% smaller than the full size photo. Check out the photo's accompanying page to find out more about the process, and how you can order large-scale prints and displays of the photo.
