Here is a pano I did of Pittsburgh. I'd appreciate CC if you have some.

I made a bracket for my camera so that it would pivot along the nodal point of the lens. It worked really well. There are only a few areas in this photo where I can see distortion. I was using a Canon G9 (which in my opinion is one of the greatest cameras ever made).

As to blending, you did a good job. I think I see a blend at the 1/3 from right point, but I guess if I cannot really tell it means it's a good job!

It's a good shot, but at least on my monitor it seems a little bright and washed out. Perhaps darken the sky a little and increase contrast overall?

That object in the sky on the left is too small to be easily identifiable, I would remove it. My eye keeps getting pulled there and it adds nothing to the pic.

The horizon is a tad slanted.

I agree with CannedHeat, an easy fix may be to add just a touch of gradient to the sky to sharpen up the contrast a bit (maybe we have the same monitor effect though)
