Abstain (as the creator of the picture). Thank you very much for the nomination. The idea behind the image was to capture both the historic chapel and the modern Winding towers in the background. Garpenberg is Sweden's oldest mine that is still operational and dates back to the 13th-century.--ArildV (talk) 16:53, 5 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Psst ArildV, gruvbrytningen går tillbaka till 1300-talet, på engelska blir det "14th century", du vet det där eviga trasslet med att man alltid måste lägga till ett århundrade när man ska översätta. ;) cart-Talk 19:41, 5 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Support I love the reflections in the old non-flat window panes. Glad to see that they are intact. A starkly lit (very appropriate) pic of an unusual building. cart-Talk 16:57, 5 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Weak support For the sheer Scandinavian starkness of it. I would like it more if the buildings in the rear at the left were cropped out. Daniel Case (talk) 19:18, 5 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Info The buildings in the background are very appropriate, they are part of the modern Garpenberg mine (now run by Boliden AB), a mine that has been in operation since the 14th century. The chapel (Garpenberg Mining Chapel) was built right next to the mine to serve the miners in the 17th century, so it is very much a part of the mining area, even if it's been moved a hundred meters or so this way and that to not be in the way of the mining operation over the centuries. cart-Talk 19:36, 5 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Support - The wooden chapel and the great sky with billowy clouds really do it for me. The cut-off tanks at the right margin bug me a little at full size but are no big deal at full-page size. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 19:44, 5 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Mild Support per Daniel and Ikan. A tighter crop on both sides would improve this. INeverCry 23:02, 5 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Nothing special, no wow. --Karelj (talk) 22:22, 7 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose No wow for me either; mainly due to the lighting and the composition being too weighted to the right side -- Thennicke (talk) 00:14, 9 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
