- We already have a featured picture of this subject. MER-C 06:57, 20 November 2007 (UTC)
- Oppose due to the subject being blurred. It is not outstanding compared to the other images in the Commons category. The existing version is the quality we're looking for. Cacophony (talk) 07:54, 20 November 2007 (UTC)
- Oppose. Sorry, but existing FP version is considerably better. On a different note I see that your only contribution to Wikipedia involves uploading this image and nominating it here - can I suggest you spend a little more time around the FPC project to see what type of things we are looking for. --jjron (talk) 08:46, 20 November 2007 (UTC)
- Oppose - Per above. 8thstar 13:47, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
- Oppose per above. There's also the matters of the distracting vehicles in the foreground, the bad lighting, the crookedness, the unattractive coloring, the scaffolding that is not a normal part of the monument and so diminishes from the encyclopedicness of the image, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera.
