Love the picture! Colours and composition are great. I also like that you have your name in the border and not spoilt the picture with a water mark. :)

According to Google Maps it's directly north and SLIGHTLY to the east. So I guess, technically, yes, it is! haha

Were you forced to manually stich or did you just choose not to go it auto?

I'm wondering if photoshop would have a problem merging/blending due to the different exposure.

GREAT SHOT though. I love it.

Great shoot, composition is perfect like it was in the frist one. The cropped one is right by the rules and I would have liked it more if I hadn't seen the frist one. They both work very well.

Thanks :)

CBL, I did try to use Photomatix to merge an HDR image but no matter what I did I'd get the haloing effect and I didn't like it. So this is the first one I have manually stitched with photoshop.

I like this in portrait. Would have been to wide in landscape. This way you will focus more on the road and get the sky as a bonus.
