71579 photos * (2592 * 1944 px) * (2.4 inches/sqrt(240^2 + 320^2)) = 2164054206 inches = 54967 km = 1.4 times around the Earth
Number of public Flickr photos * Nokia N82 camera resolution * Nokia N82 screen pixel density
So, if you were to line up the pixels from Roland's camera next to each other and display them on a Nokia N82 screen, they would circle the Earth 1.4 times.
