[edit] Tower of Silence

Image of Tower of Silence outside of Yazd, Iran. Taken in 2004. Taken by Maziart.

This picture is quite lovely and evocative, and is the jewel in the crown of the Towers of Silence article. - Smerdis of Tlön 16:17, 16 Dec 2004 (UTC)

• Oppose. imho, this picture isn't very interesting, and I can't see how it would add significantly to an article about geography/geology/rocks etc. Enochlau 15:05, 17 Dec 2004 (UTC)
• Oppose, focus is not sharp, and the utility lines distract from the subject. - Bevo 15:08, 17 Dec 2004 (UTC)
