  • The light is great, but the cut tower hurts the composition, and I fail to see how this contributes to city. Plus it is only 0.6MP ... :-( --Dschwen 10:58, 26 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Oppose Small, tower cut off, silhouette, distracting people. --TotoBaggins 14:06, 26 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Oppose wonderful artistic image, but I'm not exactly clear what it is illustrating. The encyclopedic value is weak. There are also technical issues described by toto. Additionally, the size is on the small size and there are halo JPG artifacts around the figures.-Andrew c 17:45, 26 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Oppose Small size and no encyclopedic value --Mothmolevna ( © ® ) 19:50, 26 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Oppose Per above. 8thstar 23:27, 26 June 2007 (UTC)

  • Oppose The left hand tower is cut off and leaning. However, it is a very beautiful picture, well done - Adrian Pingstone 17:26, 27 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Oppose That tower is the highlight of Shanghai, known as the "DongFangMinZhu" meaning pearl of the east. I'd like to see any photo of the Shanghai skyline not cut it off. Cheers, Corvus coronoides 17:48, 27 June 2007 (UTC)
