As you all know I have enjoyed playing with HDR but I love pano's.
Tonight I was grabbing some shots for HDR and decided to get a pano.

I took 4 shots and stitched them with PTGui.

I also got this HDR from the same location

Thank you all for your comments on my posts over the last few weeks.

Only new (just on a year) to photography and loving the learning of it all.

Great images! You ability to use HDR to get excellently exposed
sunsets is a lesson to us all - maybe a few more details of your
methodology (esp. how many shots, how you decide on your exposure

Two tiny nitpicks - I think a bit of straightening of the boat masts
would help (PTGUI should be able to help do this, or alternatively
make sure you shoot with camera level, not pointing up*.. -maybe use a
wider angle if you need lots of sky), and in the second one I'm just
not quite sure about your decision to put that guy smack bang in the
highlight - he just looks a little odd... (O;

apologies if it sounds like I'm lecturing! (O;
