    Sydney Harbour, Australia

    Panoramic. Had the hardest time merging these two photos together. Hopefully there aren't too many flaws, haha.

    I can find nothing wrong with this one, except maybe in the bottom right corner..the barrier that curves, but that is very, very, very minor, IMO. You did a great job. I like it.

    Re: Sydney Harbour, Australia

    this looks good, knowing the scene i would have liked to have seen more of the barrier curving around the bottom of the image to help lead they eye to the opera house. Either that or not at all but given the amount of black sky you have, I think it may have been a good idea to point the camera a little lower on this occasion. Still, the result is effective and there is no question that you have done a good job of merging the two images together.

    Wow. I might try skewing the horizon level if I were you but if it looks this good in large print you have something. Nice work.

    Re: Sydney Harbour, Australia

    You've captured 2 of my favorite types of images.. long-exposure and panoramics.. I really like the scene. A couple of things I would recommend however...
    1. The image is a little off balance in the vertical. Moving the horizon up in the frame would bring into the picture more of the barrier. In doing so, would eliminate some of the dead area taken up by the sky.
    2. I do not mind some barrel distortion in many images. Here it works well to accent perspective. However, I did notice that the barrel distortion is a bit off balance with the image.

    That said, I'm not sure that I could have done this any better than you have.... Questioins.. What were your exposure settings?
