There are two main reasons for the image to be unsharp: the sky was really not sharp, and I was using a manual lens with manual focus... and this is not easy to focus on my camera as the focus screen is not prepared for that.
If your comment was asking for some other unsharpening source, please be more specific. I am not native English speaker and even if my English is not bad, it is not perfect ;)
I was rather referring to the antennas and buildings on the hills. But MF under such dark conditions is quite difficult, so this explains.
When I do fireworks, I experiment manual focus (with cooled down equipment) to true infinity before the session. And it's never at the infinity mark on the lens...
I try to explain how the picture was taken and processed as far as I intend to learn, and with no clue about how I did it there is no room for you to help me improving ;)
Regardless of how sharp it is (or isn't) it looks to me like you have done a nice job of matching exposures, not easy when the light is fading fast.
Nevertheless, the key point in panoramas is fixing the parameters (exposition, focus, white balance...) and keeping all the images in the panorama within the same values.
One thing I have figured out - which @Mainzelmann seems to have missed - is that a Panorama (or fish-eye picture) cannot really be judged like a regular picture.
I hesitate to say more, as that is pretty much all that I have figured out.
Anyhow, it seems like a good try and I hope you will do more!
