Composition looks good, color looks little flat for my taste, though its difficult to critique at this image size!

I like the compostion you chose. What F Stop did you shoot this at? Did you use a tripod? The colors do look a little dull and washed out perhaps a slight curve adjustment is needed.

I had to shrink the photo down a LOT to upload it here. The colours seem brighter on the original large photo, the original dimensions are 2484X849. As far as the curvature that was actually more due to the shape of the wall rather than the panning. Thanks a lot for your input!

Curve adjustment... I misread that before, better lay off the liquor ;-) I don't know what f-stop I used; I had the camera set to auto. The camera is a Canon Powershot A640, the setting was actually the stitch setting on the camera but it pretty much adjusts stuff automagically. I did not use a tripod; it was an overcast but bright day and I just stood really still

A polorized filter will help next time and would be perfect for shots like these.
