• Oppose I would have liked to see it wider, there is visible colour fringing particularly on the left hand side. Blown highlights on lights aren't an issue imo, but a great deal of the clock face and the building on it's left is blown distorting colour. There are also sharpening artifacts on the top of many buildings, probably in an attempt to counter the softness probably discovered at f20, I'd suggest a lower fstop next time, 20 is overkill. That said, I love the colours and sky, the photo is only let down from the technical view point.

• Comment - Finally, a skyline at night image that isn't HDR (at least not that I can tell)! Kaldari (talk) 15:05, 24 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Oppose. A bit dark and soft. Aperture completely inappropriate for this sort of scene. Composition a bit tight. Essentially I agree with Noodle Snacks. I'm admittedly biased as its my home town and I've taken many similar shots like this. Diliff | (Talk) (Contribs) 21:28, 24 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Oppose - Not a bad photo, but the compostition is kind of tight, as David said. —

• Support - Good spectrum of colors, interesting sky. The shot is well framed and does a good job of showing a part of the sky line. Needs a little more description, but it's a good picture. vote added by Bobshoe - Blieusong (talk) 19:49, 26 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
