Oppose, sorry. The image is not stunning, unfocused, and the three heads at the bottom really destroy it. «LordViD» 14:40, 30 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
User:Kilo-Lima/Oppose Sorry, the heads destroy the image. --Kilo-Lima 16:16, 30 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose - it's leaning - Adrian Pingstone 12:35, 31 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose it looks like they are just standing around, waiting for something to happen. It would have been better if the if they had been doing some demonstration or some kind of military formation. Also, the three heads detract.

Point of fact - The commandante is conducting a troop review. This is part of the "demonstration or military formation" --Briangotts (Talk) (Contrib) 02:59, 2 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose. Washed out ground, tilted, and distracting heads in foreground. The lack of action makes it uninteresting. Camerafiend 16:12, 1 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose - tilted. Flcelloguy (A note?) 02:19, 3 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Busy, blurry, tilted, out of focus. --Ironchef8000 21:25, 3 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Slightly corrected version. I still have no view on whether I support it or oppose it, so this is not a vote. —Vanderdecken∴∫ξ φ 11:02, 4 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. Their faces and the front of their bodies are in shadow, which makes it harder to see the details. enochlau (talk) 11:11, 6 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
