  • Oppose - I'm neither a fan of the angle, nor the crop, and I think that the blue on blue is staining. Sorry. Sven Manguard Wha? 02:12, 8 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak Oppose I actually think this is pretty close. The stray hand in the foreground, tilt (look at the horizon) and image noise push it to an oppose for me though. I think those things could be either fixed or improved with an edit though. JJ Harrison (talk) 02:55, 8 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
    • Do remember that, in hilly countries, horizons aren't necessarily straight or horizontal. Crossbars probably should be, though. Adam Cuerden (talk) 10:20, 8 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
      • OK, whatever you do, don't look at the horizon. :) JJ Harrison (talk) 14:25, 12 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose per JJ Harrison, the tilt in particular is not great... As an aside to Sven Manguard, I agree that the colour clash isn't great, but considering that the is the colour they have chosen to paint it, I'm not sure that you can count that as a reason for the Oppose - not in my opinion anyway. Obviously you have also opposed for the angle, but it's your call if that alone is still enough to oppose. gazhiley 10:43, 8 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
    • As weird as this sounds, maybe it would have been better to wait for a greyer day to take the photo. Sven Manguard Wha? 01:53, 9 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
