Great shot Tan!!!!
I LOVE IT!!! Definately going into my favorites list!
The exposure is perfect, with nothing being overexposed yet incredible detail in all other parts. The colors are the icing on the cake- very vibrant.
I was in Hong Kong a few years for the first time, and have not had made it back since... This shot MAKES me want to go back.
Can you tell me how you were able to post a "Large version"? I've not learnt how to do that yet.

Well done!

Wohhhh, exceptional colours for a very well realized panoramic.
The most beautiful sight of HK which I was able to see until now! Terrible.

Des couleurs exceptionnelles pour un panoramique très bien réalisé.
La plus belle vue de HK que j'ai pu voir jusqu'à présent ! Terrible.

Good WE

It's a festival of colors and lights here. Beautiful catch, the exposure time has been very well handled and you have succeeded to catch a very nice moment and sceenary.
Well done

Wow, this is an incredible panorama, especially considering that it was done without a tripod. I like the long horizontal and the horizon in the center of the frame. Colors are great too. Thanks for sharing.

Gosh Tan, this stitching is really quite a speciallity of yours. Well, I guess the hard part these days is finding a suitable subject for it, and this is a great one, at a perfect time of day.

Hello Tan
Happy birthday to you !
Un très bon panorama, très coloré avaec peut-être une grosse surexposition sur les lumières les plus intenses.
Bon cadrage laissant la place aux reflets dans l'eau.
Well seen and done.

Hello Tan,

I am more used to see great landscape from you. You did a great job with this amazing view of Victoria Harbour. In the wilderness or in the city you have a great talent to capture great images and do PS as well.
Bravo

Hi Tan, and happy birthday !
Well for the festive part i'd say full success, it indeed does looks festive with all these lights on and the ones on the left side seeming to wave hello to you !
I like th clarity abd many details of the large view very much, and your stitching is excellent, the HK skyline seems to have grown to an extend that makes even the bank of China look tiny.
Have a nice day,
Jean-Yves

Valla ne diyeyim. Isiklar, sudaki yansilari, gokyuzunun ayari. Harika!
Bu arada kac saniye ile cektin resmi acaba? Onceki resimlerinde de gokyuzu ve sehir isiklarinin kombinasyonu cok iyiydi.

Hi Tan, You have done very well to stitch this together from four photographs without using a tripod. The reflections on the water are so sharp, so you must have a very good scanner. I would have maybe cropped off the terminal building on the far right as there is a smudge in the water immediately to the left of the building (not noticeable on the small version but you can see it on the large version). Cheers . . . David

Hi Tan,
Just spotted this shot by random! Really really really beautiful! I'm from Hong Kong but have never expected Hong Kong to look so nice like this ~ until you've posted this! The sky's brilliant and the lights and colours are really beautiful. I like this one especially because it's a long post which is great for showing the night scene in Hong Kong.
Great thanks for posting.
Rgrds,
Cheuk Hin

Excelente panorámica, intensos colores y perfecta composición, la textura del mar es suave y agradable, en tamaño normal será aun más impactante, buen trabajo.
