You have done merging of the photos very well - I can only guess where is the line separating them.

One thing I don't like here is white balance. There is too much yellow and orange in the photo. I think a bit cooler white balance would look better.

Hi Ian,

Nice, high contrast shadow. Surrounding area looks great as well with different tones of green.

It's interesting to see something other than skyscrapers from Singapore.
Something is not right about sharpening, it looks too harsh. There are some clearly visible white lines around some buildings. If your software supports it, try sharpening using lower radius, something like 0.2 or 0.3 pixels.

Nice looking effect of long exposure on flowing water. Great depth of field - everything in this photo looks perfectly in focus. Well managed exposure - no part of photo is over-exposed.

Well done !

Nice view from above.
One thing I don't like here is very strong vignetting, that is especially clear on the water surface. Maybe it would make sense to crop out bottom part of the photo , or just correct vignetting while processing photo.

Great looking mountain landscape. Very good timing for the photo - low sun from the side adds shadows on the slope of the volcano.

Well done !

Excellent result despite despite difficult shooting conditions. Unusual and interesting color of the sky.

I can imagine how difficult it was to squeeze lens through the hole, keep tripod stable and compose the image at the same time. For lighter camera something like Gorillapod attached to the fence could be useful in such situation, but I guess in this case your camera was too heavy.

Interesting way natural framing around your photo.
Maybe slightly wider view (covering the whole circle) and square (800x800) pixel crop would look even better.

Nice, colorful sunset, good combination of clear and cloudy sky.
I think using tele lens to zoom in to the cloud close to the sun would also produce nice sunset photo.

High quality photo taken at exactly right moment - such combination of sunlit ground, dark sky and rainbow doesn't last too long.
Nice saturated but not over saturated colors.
