Golden Gate Bridge and bay area on a super-clear day. Shot from the GGNRA on Hawk Hill.

I'm not crazy about the mix of un-complimentary colors (the brown foreground hills kill it). Nor is the hard contrast that existed at that moment in time very flattering (which is the dual-edge of ultra-clear evenings.)

Original resolution was 68 megapixel but due to SmugMug limitations, print resolution here is 19,067 x 2,465 (47 megapixel); like all shots, this prints without the copyright notice.

Stitched with panotools, autopano, and PTAssembler from 26 photos.

This is about as close to a technically perfect panorama as you'll find (or at least that I've done)--in terms of alignment, stitching accuracy, tone-matching, etc.
