  •   Oppose I agree to Yann, but disagree to Tremonist. --Uoaei1 (talk) 16:57, 19 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  •   Oppose Per Yann. Everything looks way too messy in this composition. Some of these buildings looks quite nice (especially the one at the left down corner) and could even improve the whole composition if captured somehow differently. Though, there also are not appealing spots: that damaged wall looks so poor, middle building covers the church way too much and the "dead" trees adds even more sadness to the already full of grey picture. Although, I actually like the sky as it looks quite dramatic. Pity, but the whole composition doesn't work for me. Sorry. -- Pofka (talk) 17:54, 19 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  •   Oppose Sorry. No good composition for me. -- Lothar Spurzem (talk) 22:31, 19 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  •   Oppose (formerly FPX) Image does not fall within the guidelines, of the problems noted above Daniel Case (talk) 02:51, 20 May 2015 (UTC) It does fall within the guidelines (Anyone can revert my edit.). --Laitche (talk) 11:34, 20 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  •   Comment I am repeating myself, but this image should not be FPXed. FPX is not meant to be the last nail in the coffin, but a simple process for images that have zero chance because of nonnegotiable flaws. A few people say that they don't think that the image is good enough (and that is absolutely fine), but that does not mean that the image is "not falling within the guidelines" (yes, you can construct the case that this is bad composition, but Limburg is a very tight-packed place and I myself failed to get any reasonable shot of the cathedral from this direction, so that image is pretty good given the circumstances and the photographer is not at fault). FPX is for bad images and while this perhaps is no FP, it is not a bad image. I think that I (and at least Poco and Colin in other cases) made myself clear that using FPX for such cases is rude to the photographer and nominator and beyond that serves nearly no use (an image without support has only five days anyway). --DXR (talk) 05:30, 20 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  •   Info Hi everybody. Thanks for commenting on this picture, I'ld never have nominated here myself. This photo was just a kind of test shot taken from the roof top of a parking garage why waiting for the next train in the train station near by. I wasn't realy satisfied with the perspectiv since there where some realy ugly buildungs framing this shot at the right and bottom, so there was not realy a chance to take a different crop. I uploaded this photos and some detail shoots (   ) because I realy liked the lighting and the sky, but I am definitly not done with this cathedral ;)
    @Pofka: These trees are not dead, they are just a bit late for early spring ;) // Martin K. (talk) 08:32, 21 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
@Martin K. ??? You mean that fall in my comment? That is "fall within", it's a set. Not dead... --Laitche (talk) 09:04, 21 May 2015 (UTC) OK, I understood :) --Laitche (talk) 17:45, 21 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
@Laitche: Ups, sorry: That comment was targeted on Pofka's post. // Martin K. (talk) 16:17, 21 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
