Love your Tokio panos! Always think ... should he pump the foreground more?

Thanks, Frank!

That is always the difficult question.  This time I wanted to strike the balance between the bright breaking sky, the atmosphere of the dawn in the city and the pattern in the clouds.  I tweaked expsure, contrast and shadow sliders to get this result which I hope makes sense.

There is always the question how light/dark should the foreground be.

I think this is pretty spectacular Akira!!

This is good.  How about trying a series of the exact same morning view, but different clouds/sky?

That's a nice but challenging idea.  Most of my panos have been shot from the same place (emergency stairs) but in varying directions.
