• Comment - Really dark. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 10:14, 10 February 2014 (UTC)

Uploaded a new version. Is that better? --Lewis Hulbert (talk) 10:21, 10 February 2014 (UTC)

• Neutral - I have a feeling that a better shot is still possible. Right now the image is not in the article (removed as "Not sure its a better photo as too dark to see statue detail") — Crisco 1492 (talk) 14:04, 10 February 2014 (UTC)

• Oppose — Suggest fotog gets closer and shoots from an oblique angle of some kind. Sca (talk) 16:17, 10 February 2014 (UTC)
• Oppose Composition is not FP level: the large tree in the background is distracting, although avoidable if different angle is chosen. --ELEKHH^T 22:33, 10 February 2014 (UTC)
