    I took these around 8am last Sunday morning. I didn't have a tripod so I used the hand rail. I think in the second shot I should have included the crane to the right in full? Maybe cropping left side would help?

    Any tips for metering this sort of scene? Default (multi-segment?) came out best, but probably as I wasn't using centre weighted right.

    Centre weighted metering probably is of little use for a landscape shot. Average or multi will probably give the best results.

    My thoughts:
    I would have taken 8 or 9 and stitched them together using autostitch personally.

    As regards the exposure, put the camera into aperature priority, scan the scene and watch the shutter speed change. Then switch to M mode, select the aperature you were using in A then choose an appropriate shutter speed. Take your 8 or 9 images (as RAW even if you wanted to go that far, but make sure the same raw conversion is done to each) then load them into a stitching program of your choice.

    Also, I would have liked them a little colder (this is where RAW comes in handy)...but thats just a preference given the photos...fairly subjective.
