To celebrate a record breaking year, we’ve taken the world’s biggest picture of the capital. Taken after the end of the London 2012 Games, it's your chance to share your favourite views of the capital and to document London’s year in the global spotlight.

The 320 gigapixel image - taken by expert photography firm 360Cities – comprises 48,640 individual frames which have been collated into a single panorama by a supercomputer.

If printed at normal photographic resolution, it would be almost as tall and as wide as Buckingham Palace.

I love these, zooming into stuff you can't even see from the default view and seeing immense detail/quality.

That's cool. Can you see Buckingham Palace? I was looking and can't see it. But I'm guessing it's the side or the back of it you'd see from there

you lie. it was on tv last night and they used a platform on the bt tower with a camera on some fancy gizmo. camera took 13,000 photo's, then they moved it. finally, they had to stitch them all together computer obviously didn't do too good a job, judging by the bentley above
