EVERY photographer eventually goes gaga on a clear, full moon night to capture that bright orb, but few can beat astro-photographer Lim Choon Kiat’s feat.
His shot of the moon is 20,000 by 10,000 pixels, which means he can make a single clear print of it 529cm long and 264cm wide, if such a printer exists. The photo file size is a gargantuan 100 gigabytes.
