(Thanks). I thought that this uniquely striking image emphasizes the isolation of New Zealand and presents the configuration of the world's continents and oceans from a fresh viewpoint that reveals unexpected relationships, in a crisp graphic presentation.

    • Wouldn't any outline map be "blocky"? --Wetman

  • Oppose. Nice and interesting and a good addition to the Auckland article, but not quite a featured picture. For the purposes of the Auckland article, it could be a little smaller and would benefit from a spot marking the city, otherwise the eye still gets drawn to Australia. -- Solipsist 21:16, 19 Jan 2005
