Weak support It is a wonderful picture, but the darkness in the foreground makes me a bit hesitant. AutomaticStrikeout (T • C) 02:50, 16 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Wonderful place, but this image has two main flaws: The detail at full resolution is very dizzy and the lightning is working against the shot. It needs to be taken at a much earlier time so that the sun is above the city and not from a side. Also, we don't have a defined horizon here, which is needed to have a clearer prespective: I feel like seeing a city in the skies a la Bioshock Infinite. — ΛΧΣ²¹ 04:09, 16 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment I would like make some clarifications concerning the lightning. First of all note that I took the picture at 2pm in mid-November, so, even a couple of hours before, the sun would not have been much higher. Moreover I find interesting the contrast between the illuminated and shaded sides of the buildings. Then I think that the non-defined horizon gives the sensation of high air humidity (it was indeed a quite humid day). - Federico Orsini 12:08, 16 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Noise, Noise, everywhere Noise... Plus really dark, and as mentioned above the sun is an issue. Not up to standard sorry... gazhiley 12:24, 16 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Agree with the above, looks like a beautiful area but very dark in the foreground. Cat-five t c ---- 16:06, 24 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
