  • Oppose The picture shows barely any of the building, unlike the recently featured picture. Also, there's a bit of a tilt. crassic![talk] 05:47, 12 April 2008 (UTC)
  • Oppose and I don't mind the idea of this being facade only. But, I think it needs to be a little sharper and also needs to be higher resolution--probably a bunch of images stitched together. gren グレン 11:25, 12 April 2008 (UTC)
  • Conditional support if the tilt is fixed. I'm OK with the sharpness and the resolution (it's almost 4000x2000) but the tilt is a bit annoying. Time3000 (talk) 11:56, 12 April 2008 (UTC)
  • Oppose Can't help but feel we would be better off with a much higher resolution and sharper portrait format image of one doorway and its carvings rather than the current aspect with three doors and the sidewalk etc. I think as an architectural detail shot it is trying to include too much to be visually interesting as an FP.

  • Support - High quality image, nice stitching job. I like to see the three portals -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 10:28, 13 April 2008 (UTC)
    • This has been stitched? I figured it would get more detail than this if it was multiple shots--but, I suppose that means it's a pretty good stitching job. :) --gren グレン 21:27, 13 April 2008 (UTC)
