I like night-shots like this one very much. It looks really great, more or less perfect I guess... Beautiful sky, great colours, fantastic lights. Well done.

Konichiwa Hisashi-san,
A very nice panorama showing a very modern but interesting architecture, shooting moment is excellent and plenty of nice details can be seen on the large version, shooting angle is outstanding too, a great skyline, I like !
Have a nice day,
Jean-Yves

Great night shot. Dusk is definitly the best moment for this.
Good composition, good panoramic reframing and well done for making this without tripod.

Beautifull Panorama Hisashi !! Colors and Sharpness are there. Seems it's this last point you've increased....
Well reposted!

beautifull night and panorama shot. The 3 towers (left; middle; right) balance the composition.

Hisashi,
Veeeery nice night shot with the dark sky in the back, enhancing the city even more. Nice skyline. The POV is even better here for the tall building in the middle, compared to your last night shot.
Regards,
Magnus

Very clear, beautiful colors, great composition. Looks like it should be a giant poster.

Hello Hisashi,
great night skyline.
I like the light in the sky and the lights in the buildings.
Very nice composition because there are spaces between the buildings, because the building are not all the same and because of the presence of the green wheel. TFS

Regards,
Alberto.

I am sorry I did not had the chance to go to Yokohama when I went to Tokyo. Great picture and composition.

Hi Hisashi
Again one of those remarkable city scapes! When opening the big format, it feels almost like it is jumping at me, everything look so close and detailed.
Great stuff again

Hi again Hisashi
I had already stop on this one.
Maybe you had see i like panorama (of cities or landscape) because i think they give something more than 2/3 or 4/3 pictures, even if i can't say why.
Your's is very detailled, and without blur for a 'pillar pressing'. My only one critic is there's no large post that would have be usefull, giving a better view of your panorama.
Have (again) a good day

Alexis

Hello Hisashi,
excellent shot of this nite photography. the lighting is so impressive with lovely reflection.
I like the variety of buildings in the scene, making it so endless.
Well composed and right timing making the whole shot very pleasant and very attractive.
