- Oppose. Nice enough, well lit photo, but subjectively it looks tilted (fixable) and the resort is definitely cutoff at the right (not fixable). Also questionable whether EV is sufficient (the article has no mention of this resort) and you've only just added the image to the article contrary to the 7-day minimum recommendation. --jjron (talk) 05:07, 20 January 2013 (UTC)
- I have a series of shots, in the camera still that have better perspective and well update the shot to get a wider view. I do not understand what you mean by tilt? I was at 1200 feet and about a half mile offshore so "tilt" seems like a funny way to discribe something to me. Was unaware of the 7 day req. --WPPilot 05:26, 20 January 2013 (UTC)WPPilot
- Yeah, that's why I said 'subjectively' tilted. I guess the feeling I have is that central part of the building should be vertical or something like that (dunno, I haven't actually tried rotating this or anything to test it, it just looks a bit wonky to me). I'm still not entirely sure on the EV regardless, and simply adding mention of this resort to the article for the sake of nominating here would border on WP:ADVERTISING unless the place was notable in its own right. --jjron (talk) 06:46, 20 January 2013 (UTC)

- Oppose per Jjron. --ELEKHHT 00:49, 22 January 2013 (UTC)
- Oppose per jjron - mainly on the grounds that this resort doesn't have an article. Surely that's a must? gazhiley 08:37, 22 January 2013 (UTC)
- Oppose I fail to grasp the EV, and the crop at the right is a bit uncomfortable. — ΛΧΣ21 01:30, 26 January 2013 (UTC)
