Do these panorama photos looks too 'fake'?

    I've tweaked these photos to try and hide the panorama stitches - but I've been looking at them too long to be able to make an objective judgement... have I gone too far?

    +REP for anyone who can guess what city it is :)

    no they look nice, especially the second one..

    what camera do you have ?

    I only see a dark blue streak in the water at the left that I suspect is where you stitched them, but other than that I don't see obvious errors..

    Pics were taken with my 'pocket cam'... a cheap Nikon L10 that I take everywhere I go. I bought it to use on my RC plane, but I've ended up using it more than my Fuji S9000 and old Canon 300D.

    Above the ducks? I didn't tweak the water, only the sky... I can see the stitch REALLY clearly now you mention it. :eek:

    Try harder! :p

    I am not able to figure out why are you calling them as fake. I mean they can be figured out after a constant look that they are fake but still they are awesome. :)

    If it's really fake you did a great job as I can't tell if it's fake or not.

    It's not so much that they're 'fake'... but I've tweaked the stitch points, and messed around with the sky :)

    At first glance you wouldn't even suspect they're fake but if you'd take a closer look then you may start to suspect. I like the 2nd pic. With the 1st pic, I find the very light clouds a bit unrealistic... especially those found on the right

    The pictures look nice to me. I can see some darker patches if I look closely but probably wouldn't notice them otherwise.

    Is it Hobart?
