Oppose Good reflection and colours. But it is still a brick (former) office block and those buildings on the right with scaffolding and plastic sheeting aren't attractive. Not really working for me. Sorry. -- Colin (talk) 19:54, 9 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Agree with Colin, I don't see anything featurable here. Quality is, as usual, top but I apart from the reflexion the buildings in the picture don't say much to me, sorry Arild, Poc o² 19:07, 10 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose It is just a reflection. I cannot determine which is the subject. If it is trying to show the building, then the trees and the reflection get in its way. If it is trying to show the water and the trees then the building is awfully disturbing. IMHO. Barcex (talk) 20:02, 10 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Thank you for nomination. I like this photo. Some environments are complex. This lake is located very close to the city center (In the background is en:Folksamhuset). The south shore (where I was standing when I took the picture) is a nature reserve. The northern section covers different eras, the trees on the north side is planted and belonged to a former estate. Around the year 1900 industry expanded in the area and Atlas Copco built a huge industrial area. The company dominated the area during most of the 1900s and also built the brick house. In the late 1900s, the industry move further out from the city and the new houses were built. I think (besides the wonderful autumn and the reflections in the water) that the environment is interesting with contrasts between nature and the growing and changing city. I added a geocode to show the location better. Thanks for comment and votes.--ArildV (talk) 08:04, 11 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
