What you see is caused by the details of your image becoming to small, 
sub pixel. In that case, anti-aliasing is often not enough.

You can hide it by using gocal blur. Use a small aperture value, less 
than 1% of the camera-focal point distance. As the camera get jittered 
around, it will catch and average those very small, sub pixel, details.
