This is simply spectacular.  Excellent composition and the light and color is perfect.  Great stuff.

That Oakland looks much nicer than the Oakland I experienced a few days ago. Must confess I drove trough it several times. Thank you for sharing!

Wonderful!  Light, composition, colors...

For those not familiar with the area, that's San Francisco on the horizon.  The San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge which links the two cities is visible as well.  The tall buildings of downtown Oakland are behind the photographer.

Marvelous pano, Ron!  The perfect graduation in the sky makes the image other-worldly.

Bill, thanks for the explanation of the location.

The light is just perfect, also the stitch and I love the slight curvature of the earth ;)
