My best photo ever Sydney Harbour night pano

I did a photographic trip to Sydney Harbour, Opera House, Manly ferry the other day which was a great day all by itself.

At night the Harbour City really turns it on and is spectacular.

I did many shots. This one is an 8 image mosaic from Sydney Harbour Bridge to the CBD.

Camera Nikon D800E, 24-70 F2.8 lens at F4 and 1/4sec ISO1600, no camera noise reduction on a tripod. Taken from the Opera House walkway. Converted to jpeg in Capture NX2, lens distortion correction and slight vignetting correction, mild post processing (you don't really need to do virtually anything to these images).

Also this using a 14-24mm F2.8ED lens at F7.1 and 30 second exposures at ISO 50 (very handy to have low ISO to get longer exposures and it hides people walking past etc) 2 panel mosaic (I cropped a lot off the left as it made the image unbalanced). In camera noise reduction turned on.
