- Oppose Grainy, tilted, focus isn't great. -Fcb981 05:30, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
- Support Doesn't appear tilted to me... The focus is alright, but there is a problem with the graininess. Is there a sharpened version? Anyways, it's a very shocking and unusual pic, as well as being encyclopedic. Jumping cheese Cont@ct 09:43, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
- Oppose statisfies all technical criterias ? don't think so. it's grainy and blurry, vertical lines aren't so vertical and I don't like the composition - Blieusong 10:32, 18 March 2007 (UTC)

Oppose - grainy, very out of focus in parts, bad lighting. Subject matter is amazing though. —Vanderdecken∴ ∫ξφ 11:47, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
- Oppose The buildings are clearly tilted top left and top right (which, for me, is not aceptable for FPC) - Adrian Pingstone 15:43, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
- Oppose While the picture is eyecatching and illustrates the subject matter well, it is too grainy and out of focus in parts. The overall composition is also a bit weak. -- Balster neb 17:15, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
- Oppose I like the actual subject of the photo but agree with other users it is slightly graint and out of focus. LostCity42 17:39, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
- Oppose -- Very grainy and blurry. I don't think this will make a very good featured pic. ~~Eugene2x Sign here ☺ ~~ 22:15, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
- Oppose and comment for all the reasons above. Someone, however, should get a shot of this some year, so that we can feature it as Picture of the Day on St. Patrick's Day. But I guess we missed it for this year. Great encyclopedic value here. Asiir 12:23, 20 March 2007 (UTC)
