The new crop is much better, and it's a good photo, but I would like the detail in the buildings to be a little more crisp. Can't do that without re-taking the whole sequence again of course. If the sequence were taken without the water in the first place, zoomed in closer to the skyline, you could
123:. Stitching discoloration and misallignment very noticeable. The horizon curvature might be less noticeable if the area of the photo taken up by lake Michican was reduced. However, Image:Chicago_Skyline_at_Sunset.png is already a featured picture and, while a bit blurry, is still better. -- 41:
This image was taken October 1st from Adler Planetarium. This image is a composite of 8 high resolution images. The current image of the Chicago skyline is fuzzy and a little out of date. Chicago is a gorgeous city and has so much to offer.
283:. I like it, this picture fits perfectly in the Chicago article and it shows how beautiful the Chicago skyline is. Also it needs the right part because Navy Pier is a very important part of Chicago and the lake is beautiful. 45:
I spent a lot of time working on alignment and stitching with hopes that it would be more to every one's liking. I also reduced the amount of air and water that occupy the image.
48:
There are 3 new versions available including the one above. The one which I like best has much more air and water. Also I put up a version which eliminates Shedd and Navy Pier.
443: 156:
50% of photo taken up by water. If you had the same series with sharper focus on the buildings and perhaps only 20% water, it might change my vote. See
315:. Stitching errors (for instance the sky isn't a smooth gradient), blown highlights, and it could be sharper. Good picture, but not FP in my opinion. -- 423: 17: 157: 429: 397: 385: 373: 360: 323: 305: 287: 261: 249: 228: 209: 164: 148: 127: 115: 99: 65: 173: 413: 418: 339: 188: 78: 33: 284: 124: 409: 354: 299: 295: 243: 239: 203: 142: 138: 93: 370: 161: 112: 37:

437: 382: 346: 334: 258: 236:. This is much better, but you might want to cut off a bit from the right hand side. 195: 183: 85: 73: 292:
Cut the sailboât at the very least. I realized that the navy pier is worth keeping.
394: 225: 62: 224:
New Versions Available with better stitching, no curvature, and less water/sky.

First of all, it needs to be in an article. Until then, it's ineligible.
177: 277:
is an important historical landmark and tourist attraction of Chicago.
273:(last 1/4 of the image) or just the sail boat and empty water? Note: 32: 257:. Good quality, though the right hand side could be cut. 393:
I took it:) I'll have a better version sometime soon.
176:(already Featured), so it got dumped from the 107:due to curved horizon and stitching errors. -- 8: 331:. The stitching is too obvious in the sky. 18:Knowledge (XXG):Featured picture candidates 180:article (not by me, I should point out). 7: 172:.
