Behind the scene : how this panorama was made
The pictures for this panorama were taken from the roof of the building. This roof has a glass wall of about 4m height almost all around the roof edge.

See a photo of the building here where you can see that glass wall on the roof.

I used two coupled monopods in order to get the camera slightly over the edge of that wall. A total of about 20 photos were taken, while walking along the roof wall. Stitching and post processing were a challenge as huge parallax errors were produced by taking the pictures on this large rectangle roof.
