Hazy Skyline of Bangkok, Thailand
  •  Info Panoramic view of Bangkoks hazy skyline. Pictures where taken from the "2nd" floor of the Wat Arun. It is a 14 (upright)picture pano taken at 100mm, hand-halt. ;-) c/u/n by me, mathias K 17:50, 5 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • 2nd  Info I know that the foreground looks a bit random and maybe not everyone likes the resulting actual crop. But there were some roofs in the foreground so I had to crop this for the "hazy-city effect". Just for orientation, the Millenium Hilton Hotel (with the "UFO" on top) right in the middle of the picture is about 5,5 km away. --mathias K 18:17, 5 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

 Comment Is the background in focus or is that just the haze? Either way it does detract from a massive pano with lots of detail. Saffron Blaze (talk) 23:03, 6 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • I would say the focus fits pretty good. Even those little things like satellite dishes and antennas are visible very well, though through the haze ;-). But anyway I got your point and agree with it. I would also prefer this pano with bright sunshine, a blue sky and all those little details shown clear and "sharp". But with the given circumstances, I like the result pretty much cause this hazy view, with the nearly mising colours has something special in my eyes. --mathias K 05:39, 7 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
