US Capitol Building[edit]

I feel the clarity of this image is stunning. Its content has immense historical value; the image currently appears in the United States Capitol article. It was taken and uploaded by ~~User:Markles~~ Diliff.

Support very nice, though I can see a hair or similar on the bottom left sky area. chowells 22:08, 28 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- You're right. Its probably dust on the sensor that I had missed cleaning. I can see a minor stitching fault on the right side, so I think I will try to re-stitch this weekend, and remove that dust blemish while I'm at it. Diliff | (Talk) (Contribs) 08:41, 29 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Strong Support Upon viewing at the highest resolution, I believe I can read the badge numbers of the officers on the Capitol steps! I was just in Washington this summer, and there is more detail in this photo than I was able to see in person. Outstanding. --Bridgecross 23:32, 28 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Support. Those street lights (and the cell phone guy) are a bit disracting, but that can't be helped. NauticaShades^(talk) 07:40, 29 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Strong Support Well, it's tilted about 1 degre, and is slightly right of center, I'm sorry Diliff, but I had to give this a Strong Support. | AndonicO 13:44, 29 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Support - AAAH! Diliff Again?! I'm tired man, half of FPs are made by Diliff. He's creating a monopoly. I'm looking for flaws... AHA. Tha guy is really annoying on the bottom and there is also blown highlights. ;-). Good job. Arad 02:03, 30 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Haha, well actually Fir0002 is still beating me. I have 27 and he has 51 according to his page. Diliff | (Talk) (Contribs) 12:49, 30 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  - 51 photos that he took himself or have nominated? Although Fir0002 has many amazing photos no one can really beat the quality of your pictures specially your panoramas. Arad 19:55, 30 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Support wow theres just so much detail! The corinthian columns on this thing are beautiful. IS IT LEANING...? that might want to be resolved? Looks like its dipping to the right. drumguy8800 C T 07:27, 5 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- As far as I can tell, there is no perceptible lean. Have you tried to actually measure the lean, or are you going by your own vision? Sometimes visual perception is flawed. Diliff | (Talk) (Contribs) 11:21, 5 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  - I haven't measured it, I just thought it looked like it. However, I was just showing your work to a friend and we noticed that there is a flaw in the stitching along the right side of the portico columns.. and into the wall to the right. (that is, underneath the pediment.. the main columns you walk underneath) drumguy8800 C T 16:25, 5 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
