Thanks Alan, the city is quite spectacularly lit up during this Vivid Festival, probably the best it's been aside from the censorship controversy.

Thanks Paul, honestly it's difficult not to take a gorgeous shot in the city at the moment. On 29 May 2013 21:08, J.C.

Hi John, thanks, the camera was a bog stock K5 and the lens was the current Sigma AF 17-50mm F/2.8 EX DC OS HSM at 17mm/f5.6 On 29 May 2013 23:34, Daniel J.

Cheers, Christine Hi Christine, Thanks, it's a great looking city, not always fun to live in but all big cities have their significant strengths and weaknesses. Would love yo see you out here, you know that we would look after you and Darrel very well :) On 30 May 2013 01:28, Don Guthrie <shark50...@gmail.com> wrote: > Interesting perspective for a pano. But pano or not it is a nice photo. Hi Don, thanks, to be perfectly honest it's not much of a pano, the overlap was huge, the increased horizontal angle of view was limited but made for a more pleasing overall composition I think.

Imagine my surprise to see it's shot at f/5.6. Not too > radical at all! Thanks Charles, really I don't often find the stop down beyond f8 when shooting ultra wides, the image is sharp but it's more to do with the fact that the camera was resting on a very solid steel post I suspect. I used the 2sec mirror pre-fire so that I could get my hands away, that's why the vertical angle of view isn't optimal, I should revisit the spot and use a tripod I think. Thanks for all who viewed and especially those who commented too.
