Stitching a scene with a rippled sea surface isn't an easy task.
While one could find thousands of similar pictures on the internet, it's still nice to look at and enjoy its colours.

Yup, been there, done that and then been forced to reluctantly delete what could have been a winning pano - however, I am not sure and I haven't even tried it yet, but I do believe if you have a camera with the availability of a rolling shutter/digital shutter (Sony for instance) and you have the continuous pan/stitch functionality of say an iPhone (not the Sony for instance), then you can easily get around this problem I think, but then all the waves will curl towards the direction you have panned, but probably a lot better than a fail.

Anyway, nice seascape sunset and beautiful colours  ;)

Agreed, it isn't that special but they are all unique so there's that. :)

Agreed, I used the panoramic option for perceptual which somehow lined the waves up at the expense of a lot of missing real estate above and below the horizon.
This hobby is a trip! :)
