Info Inferior view of the rock-hewn Churches of Ivanovo, located near the village of Ivanovo, 20 km south of Rousse, Bulgaria. This UNESCO World Heritage Site consists of a group of monolithic churches, chapels and monasteries hewn out of solid rock. The caves in the region had been inhabited by monks from the 13th (from when date the frescoes with Bulgarian medieval art) to the 17th century. All by me, Poc o² 21:14, 18 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Moderate Support - I don't love the light, and parts are unsharp, but they're toward the background and it looks to me like you avoided having blown sections in that challenging light. Having determined that to my satisfaction, I then looked at the composition and liked it very much. So overall, I support featuring this. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 05:47, 19 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose I'm afraid this picture doesn't work for me. In addition to the factors that Ikan has already stressed, I also find the chosen angle too extreme. But I'm pretty sure you have dozens of more pictures from this magical place... --Martin Falbisoner (talk) 09:02, 19 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- Well, no Martin, not so many and I proposed this one because I believe that it was the best one of the whole thing. If you like another one let me know, but it looks like there will be no FP of this UNESCO site. Poc o² 18:30, 19 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose The topmost 40 percent are unsharp while the bottom part is perfectly sharp. Insufficient DoF or bad lens? A bit overexposed too IMHO, washed-out colours. And I think landscape framing would suit it better. All in all, I oppose due to the unsharpness in the first place. --Kreuz schnabel 16:15, 19 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
