Got a thin skin? Then look elsewhere. Post a link to an image that you've made, and invite others to offer their critiques. Honesty is encouraged, but please be positive in your constructive criticism. Flaming and just plain nastiness will not be tolerated. Please note that this is not an area for you to showcase your images, nor is this a place for you to show-off where you have been. This is an area for you to post images so that you may share with us a technique that you have mastered, or are trying to master. Typically, no more than about four images should be posted in any one post or thread, and the maximum size of any side of any image should not exceed 950 px.

Please note that image critiquing is a matter of give and take: if you post images for critique, and you then expect to receive criticism, then it is also reasonable, fair and appropriate that, in return, you post your critique of the images of other members here as a matter of courtesy. So please do offer your critique of the images of others; your opinion is important, and will help everyone here enjoy their visit to far greater extent.
Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied. We see this as an acceptable form of critique, but should you prefer that others not modify your work, this is perfectly ok, and you should state this, either within your post, or within your signature.
Images posted here should conform with the general forum guidelines. Image sizes should not exceed 950 pixels along the largest side (height or width) and typically no more than four images per post or thread.

I figured I’d try just one night time panorama whilst I was up here at the top of the rockefeller. I had nothing except my Gorilla pod so everything was going to be pretty manual and random. I could only shoot the frames horizontal (because the camera only mounts in landscape on the gorilla pod) and I basically just had to take the frames and pick the whole gorilla pod up and rotate it and try to get things to stay as level as possible across the frames I wasn’t really expecting too much out of this but I’m really happy with the result – five (5) horizontal frames stitched (taken around 8:10PM) this encompasses around a 180º view One question - do you prefer the full wider view (which includes more of the building itself on the left and right or the cropped frame of just the city view (I have my own preference) - do you want me to make this clickable through to larger (1920) versions?

Nicely timed blue hour panos Rodney Firstly I think you need to view large to really appreciate them. Secondly, I prefer the second, however propose a third option which i would prefer  The inclusion of the building draws attention away and as such I would do all possible to remove that so that the view is more like a view from a birds eye. Looking at the second image, how about cropping from the right to remove all of the building, this would then put the spire building (originally on centreline) on the right hand third intersect and then also really bring that building on the left into play as a nice anchor point.

I think it's fine as it is and I don't think you want to remove any of the orange glow in the sky. Definitely the second image.

Second for sure. A couple of questions. Was it cold up there? And were you only allowed the Gorilla-pod because of security reasons etc?
A fine photo.
EDIT: I just read through your other post and answered the first question for myself!
