Zhuhai - Panorama

You may want to see this in XXL.

Shot from Banzhangshan ( 板樟山, Banzhang Mountain), the highest mountain in urban Zhuhai at about 290m above sea level, reachable via a 2,000-step staircase. Looking south (for north view click here). Unfortunately spoiled by a forest fire (smoke right) that broke out just as I reached the top... - the smoke does not improve the visibility.

 

Left and center left foreground is Zhuhai's Jida district, center rear is Zhuhai Gongbei and the border to Macau. Macau in the distance with the prominent Grand Lisboa Casino and the Macau Tower just visible through the smoke. The road in the center is Yingbin Avenue, one of the main traffic arteries of downtown Zhuhai, leading to the Macau border gate.

 

Stitched panorama from 10 shots, handheld in portrait format, Nikon D100 with a Sigma 2.8/24mm lens attached. Horizontal field of view is roughly 180°.

 

Another "reactivated" archive shot.
