Overall, it is a very eye-catching photograph from all aspects - size, clarity, vivid colours, exposure, and even positioning. I'm no photo expert, but as I was browsing through the Funfair article, I had to stop and look at the image - I thought it was featured already, but I guess not. Image has appeared in Funfair, and is presently being used for the {{Amusement-park-stub}} template. Credits go to Andrew Dunn.

  • Well, it's certainly pretty, and I love the blurred lights on the rides, but I don't think it would be a good featured picture. For one, there are too many blown highlights. The reflection on the ticket booth is one, but the light aimed at the camera just to the right of the ticket booth, and the other booth way on the right, are also blown. Additionally, it think it has a lot more aesthetic than encyclopedic value, so I don't think it (quite) makes featured picture. On the other hand, others might disagree with me, and it might make it. I honestly don't know if it's worth a shot. Personally, I would oppose, as pretty a picture as this is. Enuja 00:31, 14 July 2007 (UTC)
