When i almost arrived there my car heat went bad and the radiator made a sound with smoke coming out from the car, so i stopped fortunately on the parkings, and one of people helped me by leaving his car and letting me to park in his place.


This is the link of the shot above in a larger size, it is a panorama from 3 horizontal [landscape] frames

Resizing it killed the quality, i liked it very much, long time ago when i did shoot it with different cameras and lenses, today was a good clear weather i could manage to have this stitched shot. What do you think, looking at small resized one i feel it is underexposed?!!!

Hi Tareq, I do like the pano here and the colorful lights of the buildings on the left and flag on the right...I do wish the buildings in the middle of the comp were as colorfully lit too. If you have a little bit more on the left I would add it back in due to the cut-off building...better to show the whole building or none of it. Look forward to more.

Thanks Andrew, in fact maybe my opinion was wrong then, i thought to keep the left or right open just extension of trees for example may give that space or flat composition and no rest point, so i placed half of a building or slight part of it to stop the eyes there, but maybe i have to research about that more.

Well, i have one more wanted to post it here, but i think i am allowed only for 1 photo per day, and now with you comment i re-think if i will post it.
