Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/East River Bridges from Astoria Park

Original - A panoramic view of the East River from Astoria Park in Astoria, Queens. The park is visible on both sides of the image, while the two bridges (the Triborough Bridge (left) and the Hell Gate Bridge (right)) are shown heading towards Manhattan.

Reason: This image I found on Flickr is one of the best images of the East River and the two nearby bridges (Triborough and Hell Gate) which I have ever seen. This image is a large panorama with an amzaing view. It should meet the criteria.

Oppose. Hang on, I see the Sydney Harbour Bridge, but the skyline looks different. And where's the Sydney Opera House? Mainly the stitching errors. Diliff | (Talk) (Contribs) 08:21, 23 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- That's astonishing how similar the two bridges look. Stevage 02:07, 27 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  - Agree; for all the (warranted) notoriety that the SHB gets, one would think this would get similar acclaim, especially since its 15 yrs older than the SHB. I had never heard of it before this. wadester 16 16:40, 28 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Support - I've lived in Queens most of my life and didn't realize we had a tale of two bridges. It makes me want to take a visit to Astoria Park. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jack2008man (talk • contribs) 07:03, 31 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
