  • Looks pretty good; can't see any obvious stitching errors or anything. Composition looks pretty good. A few things. (i) The sky colour looks a little, well, odd; given a few noms have been getting challenged for unrealistic colours and oversaturation recently, I'd just want to make sure this is genuine and realistic. (ii) The building is bit uneven maybe, for example those uprights at left look a bit tilted; now it's entirely believable that a building this age is like that in reality, but would just want to confirm that's the case, rather than a tilted photo having been used to make the pano. (iii) there's some spots in the sky about two thirds of the way across; they may be distant birds, but they may be dust spots. I'd be inclined to clone them out. --jjron (talk) 15:17, 23 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the feedback. (i): I still have the raw files, and I'm confident that the sky is fairly realistic; (ii) I looked at the original photos, and it's difficult to tease out the differences between uneven construction, perspective distortion and lens distortion. I think perhaps a slight perspective transformation to fix the lean on the two towers on the left might be in order. Other than that, I can't see any other major problems. (iii): fair point. I'm quite busy IRL right now, so will deal with points (ii) and (iii) in the next week or so. NotFromUtrecht (talk) 19:19, 24 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Looks OK to me also, especially if you deal with ii and iii, I'd probably support. Pine (was GreenPine) talk 21:32, 26 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
