  • Support. I would have liked to see a bit more of the foreground, but very nice. Ðiliff «» (Talk) 18:40, 4 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment. There appears to be a discontinuity in the coloration of the arches along the top of the structure, just to the right of the center of the building. Is that part of some sort of ongoing restoration/reconstruction/repainting project? If so, is it something that ought to be mentioned in the article and/or image description?

    • I think it may be an ongoing restoration but I can't be sure. Even so, I don't think it affects the image much --Muhammad(talk) 06:53, 6 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
      • It looks more obvious in the thumbnail than in the full sized image, I think. It's not a problem anyway, it's just the reality of the scene, imperfections and all. Ðiliff «» (Talk) 07:06, 6 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support per nom, but given that "Bara Imambara" is the name used for the whole complex, the caption as well as the file description should be more precise and explain what we see (i.e. the northern façade of the imambara hall). Btw, good effort to capture the morning light. --ELEKHHT 01:58, 11 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
