- Info Clearly, sometimes you only have to wish for something and it will appear. This is sort of what I was looking for in the previous nom. Created and uploaded by Alvesgaspar - nominated by W.carter -- cart-Talk 21:41, 23 October 2016 (UTC)
- Support -- cart-Talk 21:41, 23 October 2016 (UTC)
- Thank you for the nomination, W.carter. I was not sure myself owing to the strong distortion. But I agree the view is striking! Alvesgaspar (talk) 22:23, 23 October 2016 (UTC)
- Support nice mood. --Alchemist-hp (talk) 21:44, 23 October 2016 (UTC)

- Question No complains because of the dust spots and the noisy sky?--Ermell (talk) 06:57, 24 October 2016 (UTC)
- I missed the dust spots, those few are now corrected, thanks for pointing them out. I hope Alvesgaspar don't mind. Unfortunately I wrote "left" in the Comments when it was "right". Is that correctable, or do I live with the shame of having mixed up left and right? As for the sky, I don't find it too noisy. It's a large file and denoising with such thin clouds can have strange effects. I think it is up to Alvesgaspar to make that decision. cart-Talk 09:06, 24 October 2016 (UTC)
- I make that mistake all the time - I'm one of those guys that often still has to feel my hands to remember which side is which, and that's not even fail-safe. And I do correct such mistakes in my comments when I catch them. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 09:29, 24 October 2016 (UTC)
- Support Good picture --Ermell (talk) 10:44, 24 October 2016 (UTC)
- Support Now this works! Icy in its beauty and juxtaposition of old and new. Daniel Case (talk) 17:32, 24 October 2016 (UTC)
- Comment For sure an impressive motive and challenging shot. Nonetheless I would suggest some optimizations:
- Slight CAs at the top right building (CA note), I would definitely denoise the sky, the foreground is too tightly cropped for my personal taste, have you got more space left there? Judging from the EXIFs of the photo is is a stitching, probably you can add information about the stitching with
{{Photo}}
and/or{{Panorma}}
template. I have no problem with the distortion - inevitably for such an extreme view, but I am wondering why the top of the building is relatively unsharp although you've used stitching technique. --Tuxyso (talk) 18:42, 24 October 2016 (UTC)
- I'm 'pinging' Alvesgaspar on your behalf. Such decisions and answers needs to be from the photographer and not the nominator in this case. cart-Talk 18:52, 24 October 2016 (UTC)
- Thanks,W.carter. My questions / suggestions were indeed directed to the photographer. Because Alvesgaspar already reacted to your nomination I was sure he has this page on the watchlist :) --Tuxyso (talk) 18:57, 24 October 2016 (UTC)
