    We love our timelapses and animations but this static, 12 gigapixel photo shot almost 270 meters above Hanoi is mighty impressive.

    Captured by Vi Khoa & Trung Dung from the Lotte Tower, the country’s second tallest building, the photo is composed of 1,360 separate images, allowing for some incredible detail.
