Commons image, taken by Chinese Wikipedian, zh:User:Captmjc. I added it to Marco Polo. It's a featured picture on the Commons, and I think it's a great picture.

  • It's very dark and hard to make out the details on the statue and to distinguish it from the trees. I wonder what Commons liked about it enough to feature it? Elf | Talk 21:36, 2 September 2005 (UTC)
  • Oppose. I agree with Elf. The picture's also on the small side, has definite compression artifacts, and looks slightly tilted. —Cryptic (talk) 05:29, 3 September 2005 (UTC)
