  • Oppose ordinary picture, not stunning at all Mikeo 22:16, 1 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose While slant could possibly be corrected, and care has been taken in framing to minimize the imposition of that tree, the subject is in shade and the foreground fountain is cut off, creating an awkward appearance. For such a widely-known and (relatively) easily-obtained image we should insist on the best. This is better than adequate, but not by much. --Dhartung | Talk 06:48, 2 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose The lack of symmetry does it for me I'm afraid. -- Chris BTalkContribs 10:38, 2 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Given that the recent stabilized magic hour attempt at this shot (right) failed, I wouldn't put the odds in favor of this nom. Noclip 03:18, 4 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
