Support Composition, colors, symmetry, quality. Very good. --Paolo Costa (talk) 20:59, 6 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Neutral A good picture, but some parts overexposed, CA e.g. at the left side on the lower part of the left minaret, and "ghosts", which should be removed. --Llez (talk) 09:11, 7 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, hope I don't sound like trying to influence (just trying to share, and maybe help some people who don't have experienced to realise). But when taking night shots, one is faced with the contrast challenge. It's very difficult not to have some burnt parts. Then I could go for multiple exposures blending trick, but this would extend the time I spent taking the sources picture. I can't do that in fast decreasing light like what happens at dusk or I would lose the lighting consistency between the pics. I shall say that I haven't found the trick, but if someone knows I'd be happy to know :). As for the ghosts, this is recurring issue, and again, it's hard not to have a few of these in a busy touristy place like this one. I've waited a moment to have a spot with this "few" people on it. - Benh (talk) 17:10, 7 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
