Oppose Unfortunately I find the too prominent and unbalanced foreground spoils the composition. I also think this is where a panorama is suitable, as per this FP. - Benh (talk) 09:36, 12 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Well, that is exactly the same spot. That is the chalet du Mont-Royal, you can check the geography of the place with the geotag, it's a pretty small place. That FP is cropped, but you can still see disturbing branches. You can also notice that picture was taken in winter: branches are still in the way, only they don't have leaves. --Paolo Costa (talk) 19:18, 12 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose I think the colors, exposure and overall technical quality (like noise level) is very good. The foreground is distracting though. Detail level could be better, cf. benhs review. --Slaunger (talk) 20:57, 12 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Question I noticed about sharpness looking at the awesome panoramic mentioned by Benh. No wonder that picture is technically better, (also keeping in mind it is made by 15 pictures), but I think this is a cool one-shot optional version, from the same spot, but taken at night and in fall. So I found the RAW file, sharpened it and re-cropped it as suggested, only I don't know how to post the alterative version on the candidate list. Can anyone help me post it? This would be the alternative version: [1]. Thanks in advance.--Paolo Costa (talk) 21:08, 12 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  - You could add subsection to the current nom, but I believe it would be better to create a separate nom. As you can only have two actives noms, you may want to withdraw one first. Just in case u're interested, the alternative crop is much better in my opinion, but I'm afraid the comparison to the current FP will disfavor your picture. You may also want to look at the white balance, because I think it's very on the purple side (look aesthetic for sure, but is it true to what you saw ?). - Benh (talk) 21:52, 12 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
    - Got it. I'm gonna withdraw this one, check on the WB and then we let voters decide whether it's worth to keep this view in our gallery or not, thanks.--Paolo Costa (talk) 22:03, 12 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
