Watching Twitter tonight has taught me one thing, Phillies fans are a bunch of whiny dicks. But it's ok, every tank needs a bottom feeder.
And I thought I wanted to hug Johan last week. I think I'm officially in love.
Listening to Ra, glance at the notes and there's @AliveRecords. Nice cover, Mr. Boissel! @TheGloryFires #magiccityjams http://t.co/uT0M77VJ

In terms of megabytes, this is much bigger http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Orion_Nebula_with_proplyd_highlights_%28captured_by_the_Hubble_Space_Telescope%29.jpg
and its original, although not as many pixels as the Georgetown Powerplant is much more impressive IMHO

The guy with the black shirt in the back, his head was cut and pasted on the left side of the image on the power generator. This photo was obviously tampered with.

There are several gray vertical lines across the image, so I'm guessing that it's been stitched together from several smaller images. That would explain the person being in two places at once.
Also, aside from the floating head there is a child with no legs. Yay slow shutter speeds!
