  • Support Its not perfect (a few crooked buildings, noise in the sky, feels cut off at the bottom), but I've often thought that a good panorama of the paris CBD was a glaring omission in our FPs. JJ Harrison (talk) 09:26, 19 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • As for someone who lives there, and who has taken a few Paris shots, it's because it's not easy to get the opportunity... Most of the buildings are offices, and they won't let you reach the higher floors easily (already asked). I wonder who author asked, but it seems taken from Défense 2000 which is apartments building. Maybe he has a friend or relative there. - Blieusong (talk) 21:01, 21 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose due to blown highlights. Maybe this could be fixed with editing. Pinetalk 09:31, 19 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support Agree with JJ, shame about the highlights but the amount of detail there is superb and outweighs that imo. Fallschirmjäger  08:03, 21 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support Few technical flaws, but maybe it's not so easy to do better, and it's OK given the size. And one has to be able to take a picture from such place... I wonder about FOP issues though.- Blieusong (talk) 21:01, 21 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support: The FOP issues would probably fall under "unavoidable presence", which makes them okay. Colours are good, difficult shot because of the permissions issue, highlights are a little blown but I agree that they are offset by the difficulty of the shot.

  • Support – Nice panorama, good lighting, highlights are blown by a bit but they don't detract too much. mc10 (t/c) 18:51, 23 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
