[edit] Manzanar Watchtower Replica
Again, I am a novice photographer, at best, but this is one of my best photos. Be gentle with your criticisms. :-) -- Gmatsuda 23:29, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

- I like the composition. The tower is well framed and the backdrop is quite stark. Lighting is nice, and picture quality is good. OK, some things that would go against it on FPC. The main thing would be the question on significance, i.e., does this have sufficient encyclopaedic value - what makes this stand out from any other wooden tower; this is especially relevant when we know this is a replica, rather than the real deal. If it could be used to illustrate more than this one article, that would increase its value. It appears a bit tilted, and to need a slight clockwise rotation - possibly under half-a-degree. Crop on the top seems a bit tight, and tower seems a little off centre; I assume the orginal was bigger, although that camera doesn't give you a lot of space to play with, but these things could presumably be fixed easily enough. I'm not sure it would get through as an FP, but it is a very nice picture. --jjron 06:43, 21 September 2007 (UTC)
