Melbourne Central shot tower[edit]

Melbourne Central shot tower

Spectacular architectural picture of the Coops (Melbourne Central) Shot Tower article, although not very large, seems to meet the other requirements.

  • Weak Oppose. The subject looks great, but the image is slanted at an awkward angle. It seems that at a different time of day the image would be better. -- AJ24 16:40, 24 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose quite small and there is something distracting in the top right hand corner. Childzy (Talk|Contribs) 17:37, 24 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak Oppose Image is too small to have much detail and resolution. A larger version of this would get my vote. --WikipedianProlific(Talk) 19:07, 24 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • oppose too small and i find the dark object in the upper right very distracting--Vircabutar 19:20, 24 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose. Ridiculously small and distracting thing in upper right corner. --Dschwen 20:57, 24 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose. I like the composition that AJ called "slanted", but I have to agree that the distracting thingy in the corner and the lack of resolution kill the chances of this image. - Mgm|(talk) 21:04, 24 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose. Same as above, the resolution is very bad.--Enano275 05:02, 25 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose - regretfully, I wish it had more resolution. HighInBC 02:06, 26 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose -- agree, object at top right is a distraction. - Longhair 05:08, 26 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment for what it's worth, the distracting thing is a balcony (see [1]). It's difficult ([2], [3]), but not impossible [4] to not get one in the shot. I had the same problem, but mine was at the bottom. Stevage 11:47, 26 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
    • And in case anyone is curious, this [5] is a 3 part ultra-wide panorama that I took late last year showing just what it looks like. Diliff | (Talk) (Contribs) 13:06, 28 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Anyone who's lived in Melbourne will know how easy it is to take a photo like this... I'm sure I've got better ones myself but I wouldn't nom them for FP! 219.89.69.93
