Giant Bug Invades Germany

I was sent this link by Craig this morning, it's most ammusing and yet another reason not to goto Germany... :)

It got me wondering how they take these photos, I always assumed it was digital sent down to NASA (or similar) but having an in-focus insect on the shot is most intreging, even if it was crawling across during post-processing it would be black and not in focus.

Perhaps there really is a 50m bug in Germany, or perhaps it's just another rouse like the guy that wrote f**k in the field.
