[edit] UCR's Belltower

UCR's Belltower. This is the most recognizable structure on the UCR campus and can be seen from miles away, even from the surrounding local freeways.

Used in the University of California, Riverside article. I took this picture on a clear day in late fall. Mind you, the tower is slightly slanted, only because the ground on the University is on a slight incline. I don't know if this could be considered as a featured picture candidate, but I would like to try.

  • Support. First though the image was tilted, but this is only a very minor tilt. -- Chris 73 Talk 15:25, Dec 1, 2004 (UTC)
  • Oppose. While I have never been there, I doubt very much that the building is as off-plumb as this picture seems to indicate. If the ground is sloped, you should correct for the building, =not= the horizon. I would also note that this photo is not "beautiful, striking, shocking, impressive, titillating, fascinating, or in short just brilliant" - while this is an attractive building, this is not an especially interesting photo.

  • Oppose. A nice shot, but a fair way off the world's best tower for architecture. -- Solipsist 22:09, 5 Dec 2004 (UTC)
