Gorgeous, but the bottom looks a little bit too cropped off.
Still a breathtaking shot though :wub:

Issac - For pano shots, too much of everything isn't good all the time esp. in the case of landscapes. Often over balancing the top and bottom results in a too symmetrical shot, which can be boring. But great to hear your viewpoints as always :) That's how we learn n share.
Stone - Er ... dunno ?? :P Time to throw your pc away and get a new one haha

For those who're curious about pano shots, here's some tips that I picked up from photography magazines:
1. Try to use a tripod where possible (Better yet, get a pano tripod if you've lotsa $$ to spare)
2. Keep your exposure locked in (Else you've a lot of rework later on)
3. Depending on how many frames you're intending to stitch later on - Overlap each frame by around 30% at least cos this will make stitching easier
Of course before all else, have a mental frame in your mind before you begin to shoot.

Have not had a chance yet to do panorama & stitching yet. But I read on the net that it is advisable to shoot with 30% (agak-agak) overlap for the pics you want to stitch.
