Baggage claim area at Hong Kong International Airport edit

Original - 300 degree indoor panorama of baggage claim area at Hong Kong International Airport near midnight.

Edit 1 - brightened

Reason: It completely illustrates the article Baggage claim and the Baggage carousel. It also displays other things in an airport such as baggage cart, baggage enquiry desk, busy arrival on the right.

Comment This is a picture of HK airport, yet it isn't in its "home" article? Dengero (talk) 12:56, 6 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Couldn't find "Baggage claim area" in the article Hong Kong International Airport. If the picture is put in Baggage and cargo facilities, it could not illustrate that part, because that part only says the underground baggage handling, which means it cannot fulfill criteria 5: "Add Values to an article". So Baggage claim is the best place for this picture, the place which it can illustrate an article. βαςε _LXIV ™ 23:13, 6 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Weak Oppose Not really sharp, no "wow". Sorry. —αἰτίας •discussion• 18:22, 6 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Support Baggage claims will never be exciting, but compared to a wide angle shot, it is much more interesting. --Uncle Bungle (talk) 04:00, 7 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Support I usually don't like panoramas, but this one is very interesting, and from what I can tell the technical quality is good. Juliancolton ^{The storm still blows...} 12:57, 7 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I don't usually like panoramas either, but when you look at this one in full resolution and scroll from left to right, it feels like you're looking around. Very well put together, would be cool as an animation too. --Uncle Bungle (talk) 16:53, 7 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Support and likewise, I added it to the HK airport article. Yahel Guhan 07:34, 9 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Support as exciting a shot of a baggage claim area as anyone is likely to take. Matt Deres (talk) 22:14, 9 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Support. Baggage claims are never going to be thrilling, but I think this is a very good depiction of the subject. -Hit bull, win steak^(Moo!) 15:32, 11 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Support with preference for edit 1 -- I know it's indoors and all, but it looked really dark. Added an edit which brightened up the lighting a bit. howcheng {chat} 20:12, 11 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
