Support - Thanks, Ikan Kekek for the suggestion at QIC. Also spent some time labeling the image. — Rhododendrites ^talk | 06:10, 12 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Support - Thanks for the excellent labeling. Fine photo, and it's nice that you got a helicopter in it. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 06:26, 12 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Question - Is there a category for "Lower Manhattan Skyline" or "Downtown Manhattan Skyline"? If so, I'd suggest adding it. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 06:28, 12 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Done moved to Category:Manhattan skylines from Governors Island. --El Grafo (talk) 09:42, 12 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Support ~~The size is not huge and the crop at the right a bit tight, but they are minor issues~~. Nice helicopter and image notes -- Basile Morin (talk) 08:32, 12 March 2019 (UTC) update after new upload -- Basile Morin (talk) 03:59, 15 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose very nice image, but not outstanding compared to other images of the same subject. The composition/crop feels a bit crammed at the sides, the level of detail is not that great and the position of the sun makes for a rather flat image. In my opinion, all of this is handled better in File:Lower Manhattan from Governors Island September 2016 panorama 2.jpg. The chopper is about the only thing that sets it apart from similar views and I'm afraid that's not quite enough for me. All that being said, the image notes are very useful, so I think this would make an excellent VI. --El Grafo (talk) 09:54, 12 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose File:Lower Manhattan from Governors Island September 2016 panorama 2.jpg works much better for me. Charles (talk) 11:31, 12 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Agree with Charles. The composition and light is better in the other photo, which is also higher resolution. The helicopter isn't positioned and directed optimally to enhance the photo. -- Colin (talk) 15:03, 12 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Support Very instructive The image quality is very good and the informative label work sets it apart positively from other good images of this motif. --Milseburg (talk) 15:39, 12 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Support per Milseburg --Palauenc05 (talk) 20:41, 12 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
~~Oppose~~ Per others, right crop is too tight --Poc o² 20:58, 12 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
The new crop is better, moving now to NeutralPoc o² 09:45, 17 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose, per Colin and Charles. Daniel Case (talk) 02:40, 13 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Support Nice capture with the helicopter. Cmao20 (talk) 20:56, 13 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose per Charles and others --Uoaei1 (talk) 12:25, 14 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The new version is much better, changed to

Comment Time went by between editing and uploading and I guess I didn't realize some space got lost while fixing perspectives (I think that's what happened anyway). So there's a new version which addresses the right crop. Obviously this doesn't address other issues brought up, so I doubt this will change much, but I would be remiss if I didn't upload and ping commenters anyway. :) @Uoaei1, Cmao20, Daniel Case, Poco a poco, and Palauenc05: — Rhododendrites ^talk | 14:32, 14 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Whoa, does {{Ping}} have a limit of 5 people on Commons? Did not know that. the others: Milseburg, Colin, Charlesjsharp El Grafo, Basile Morin, Cayambe, Ikan Kekek — Rhododendrites ^talk | 14:34, 14 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Better, but I still prefer the other one. Charles (talk) 15:36, 14 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Much better, but I also still prefer the other one. --El Grafo (talk) 15:48, 14 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

It's fine. The other photo is bigger, but both compositions are good and I think it's not overkill to have a couple of FPs of the Downtown Manhattan skyline. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 17:33, 14 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Same reasoning as Ikan. I would support the other image too for its superior resolution, but the helicopter makes this one a little different. Thanks for providing the improved crop. Cmao20 (talk) 19:33, 14 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose The helicopter is nice, but isn't special enough to make me support a 10.6 MP cityscape with blue sky and no clouds. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 01:49, 17 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
