- It's about as complete a view of the square as possible, short of a nice angled aerial shot from a passing helicopter. ;-) The resolution is good, there are no (major) stitching errors AFAIK which was surprisingly difficult to achieve with so many people moving around, and although the lighting is a little dull due to the cloudy sky, it does keep the lighting consistent across the 360 degree view - something that would not possible in sunny conditions.

- Support. Looks a bit over-sharpened at full res, but I can't find anything else to complain about. The lighting is nice and even, the resolution is impressive, and there are no stitching errors, halos, etc. Kaldari ( talk) 19:06, 24 September 2009 (UTC)
- Comment Pretty well stitched image. I see some issues around Nelson's Column: the whole thing looks to have a halo, there is a minor stitching flaw at the left side of the columns base, and there is a ghost of a girl at the left side of the columbs pedestal. Was any HDR used on this (I ask because of the haloing and noise in the darker areas of the image such as the entrance to the National Gallery) Cowtowner 23:44, 24 September 2009 (UTC)
- I was wondering that myself, although I assumed it was from oversharpening with a large radius.

- I don't think it's oversharpening, although it's probably essentially the same thing - local contrast enhancement via the 'clarity' slider in Lightroom. I'm at work at the moment (as per below comments!) so I can't check the settings used or how much juice it was given, but it wouldn't surprise me if the (slight, surely!) halo around the column is due to this. Jeez, it must be 'pick on Diliff for niggly processing issues' week. ;-)

- Support Nicely done panorama. I was also wondering, why that girls left of Nelson' Column is fading into the background. A little bit too much shadow reduction for my taste, but that's something minor and a personal taste. Btw, I like the fact that it's an overcast sky (since this isn't always ugly as shown here). -- Massimo Catarinella ( talk) 23:51, 24 September 2009 (UTC)
