  • Weak oppose While this is a valiant attempt at good photography, the text is a bit blurry when viewed at full size, and the Hilton sign in the background is unwelcome. --Pine 23:18, 28 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose as well, I also don't think the big photographic banner in the background would be covered under FOP in the UK, so there is a potential copyright issue here. — raekyt 08:55, 29 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • I suppose that when you shoot from the point of monument's inscription, the Hilton sign would be inevitably there (don't know about the background portrait though). Brandmeistertalk 12:14, 29 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Wider aperture would take care of that. However dealing with the blow highlight issues on the right would be a bit of a challenge. Perhaps trying with the sun very high in the sky?©Geni 20:36, 29 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose per Pine. looks noisy Mediran talk|contribs 10:41, 30 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose per Raeky - the background image is almost certainly not covered under FOP and may present copyright issues with the image. The Hilton sign is also a problem. It looks as though you're not quite centered on the inscription text; if you change the angle a bit, you might be able to obscure any recognizable parts of that backdrop with the monument itself and avoid the issue entirely. It's a very good image, but unfortunately the potential issue with FOP is a non-starter. Hersfold non-admin(t/a/c) 18:11, 31 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
