Photo made up from many other small photos

Hello,

You’ve all seen those photographs when viewed from a distance look like one big picture but as you get close you see it’s made up of hundreds of tiny photographs.

I came across a tutorial to make one only to realize its kind of a fake way of doing it and it doesn’t come out well at all. Here’s the link…

Anyway, does anyone know how this could be done or know of another tutorial or is it beyond what photoshop can do?

Sorry if this has been posted before, I did a search and found nothing but threads on standard photo montages.

Thanks

There is a program for making such photo mosaics - Andrea Mosaic:

And… it is donationware! :smiley:

Thank you very much
