This is a video excerpt (runs about 5 minutes) from the documentary “Beautiful Minds: A voyage into the Brain” featuring Stephen Wiltshire, aka the ‘Living Camera’. Stephen is autistic and has the remarkable ability to be able to retain visual details — in this case, details from an aerial view of Rome — and put them on paper. (You can buy prints and originals of his work on his website).

Truly amazing.
