Excellant panoramic crop. As a jafa I'm a little bit biased but I really like this. The sky really makes the shot.

Taken from Achilles Point if I'm not mistaken, great place for a nightscape. Have a very similar picture framed on the wall, might see you up there some time :-)

The burnt sky is impressive and draws you across this image.

Nice colours in the sky. Where did you take this from? It is a non-typical angle you have used which gives the skyline a nice descending angle as the image goes to the right.

Wonderful job capturing the cloud color without over-saturating the city lights.

Around Bastion Point? Awesome night photography. Superb quality. Auckland Tourism would eat this up, might pay to look into it and see if you can't flog your wares. That is, if you haven't already... :)
