Not sure about image of the year but I really appreciate the great feedback. Thank you very much Greg

Yeah, so what I mean by 9 vertical images is I shoot across the horizon but I have the camera shooting portrait style. It means you can get a lot more height in the final panorama image. And yes 14mm
I see. So you shoot portrait orientation and go sideways across the horizon. Makes sense.
30 seconds F2.8 14mm Samyang?
I am testing a Samyang 24mm F1.4 and it looks to be very good so far.
I am also interested in their tilt/shift 24mm when it arrives at market. It looks very promising and may be good for panoramas.
Greg.
