•  Info created by Colin - uploaded by Colin - nominated by Colin. The view from the top of the dome on Methodist Central Hall is reckoned to be one of the best in London. However, it is only open to the public one weekend a year for Open House London. The weather was a mix of sunshine and clouds; fortunately some dark ones placed themselves conveniently leaving a gap for the sun to shine on the Houses of Parliament and the London Eye. I had time for a simple stitch of 1012 fames before it dulled. -- Colin (talk) 18:59, 29 September 2014 (UTC)

•  Comment Claus spotted some distortion the lower right, affecting St Margaret's church. This was due to having the centre point of my projection too high, causing more wide-angle-perspective distortion/rotation than is necessary. I redid the stitch, including two extra fames and with a lower centre-of-projection. The church isn't perpendicular to the camera, so still has some small angle to it's horizontals remaining, which is natural. I've included slightly more to the left, which brings in another tower and half of St Paul's. LivioAndronico, ArionEstar, Coat of Many Colours, Cathy Richards, PointsofNoReturn, Claus, Nikhilb239, Böhringer, Basik07, Martin Falbisoner, Spurzem, Tuxyso, DXR -- can you check you are happy with the new image. No stitching errors introduced? I think the buildings stand upright better in this one. -- Colin (talk) 11:07, 30 September 2014 (UTC)

•  Comment Happy. It's a splendid image! Coat of Many Colours (talk) 15:02, 30 September 2014 (UTC)

•  CommentYou managed to improve an already great by itself. Excellent quality you were able to take that wonderful contrast between the sky and the splendor of Big Ben. In addition there is the modernity of the Ferris wheel with westminster. Truly a high quality product and amazing. --LivioAndronico talk 19:05, 30 September 2014‎

•  Support Biig Big Ben. Excellent! An improveable issue is that the dark parts of the nicely structured clouds are somewhat noisy at full resolution. Perhaps a NR adjustment brush in LR could improve that quite easily? -- Slaunger (talk) 19:55, 30 September 2014 (UTC)

Done :-) -- Colin (talk) 20:23, 30 September 2014 (UTC)
