Original - A panorama of the city Dar es Salaam. Dar es Salaam is Tanzania's largest city and a regionally important economic center. With an annual population increase of 4.39%, the city has become the 3rd fastest growing in Africa and the 9th fastest in the world.
Reason
A good quality, high resolution (20.4mp) panorama, showing the infrastructure, vegetation and landscape of Dar es Salaam. A unique image, with no other free or commercially available alternatives.
Question: Is that undulating horizon a real, geographical feature, or an artifact of a less-than-perfect stitching? There's a difference of around 100 px on the sea level height at the extreme left & right... --Janke | Talk19:27, 23 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
This is not a vote as I obviously am not logged in, but I think that the caption needs some work. "With an annual population increase of 4.39%, the city has become the 3rd fastest growing in Africa and the 9th fastest in the world." What does that mean? Is that for just one year? Which year? Compounded over a period of time? I think that it is ambihuous and or misleading. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.195.86.40 (talk) 20:23, 23 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Seems pretty self explanatory to me - it's evidently a compound growth at an average of 4.39%, making it 3rd and 9th fastest growing respectively. A reference is provided in the article, right above where this image is - see here. --jjron (talk) 01:02, 24 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
If it is a 360 deg panorama it should be stitched as that. The ends do not seem to line up. By stitching across the wrap around you can remove some of the tilt. By adding vertical guides to the buildings you will be able to romove all undulations from the horizon. Until it is properly stitched I can only say oppose. --Dschwen14:24, 24 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
