- Weak oppose. Great image, but not as informative as a day shot would be. I'll refrain from joking about blown highlights, this time... ;-) --Janke | Talk 06:49, 21 September 2007 (UTC)
- Comment This shot begs to be retaken in HDR. Tone mapping with +2EV shots would fix the noise in the sky, and a -2EV set could bring back the highlights. Noclip 22:17, 21 September 2007 (UTC)
- Oppose; it really is too dark for the image to be of much encyclopedic value. Some of the buildings, for instance, are near pitch-black darkness, and I have to spend...ten seconds...trying to figure out if it looks like a prism or a cuboid. Do a panorama in the day; it's less appealing, but makes up for that with more details. -- Altiris Helios Exeunt 02:54, 22 September 2007 (UTC)
- Oppose - Some parts look brilliant but overall there is too much dark --Childzy ¤ Talk 10:16, 22 September 2007 (UTC)
- Oppose: Images like the London panorama that just got promoted are the way to go. This pales in comparison. --snowolfD4 ( talk / @ ) 12:05, 26 September 2007 (UTC)
