Grand Peterhof Palace and the Grand Cascade

Peterhof cascade is one of the greatest of St.Petersburg's landmarks, and is very important part of Russian history. The picture is well taken. It is not blurry, sharp, and high resolution.

Nominate and support. - GoOdCoNtEnT 05:00, 16 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. Blown-out sky. Mikeo 06:16, 16 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose, same reason. It's a nice image apart from that, but it's probably safe to say that this nomination should be aborted now - no image with pure white sky like that would ever be promoted. Stevage 14:07, 16 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose As Steveage says, overexposed sky. The piece of very pale blue sky on the left proves that it was not actually a pure white sky - Adrian Pingstone 14:13, 16 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose per above. Also, the trees on the left exhibit some purple fringing. -- Moondigger 19:52, 16 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. Sorry, great image otherwise, but per above. --Tewy 04:24, 17 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Completely overexposed sky, too bad nice subject. HighInBC 22:12, 17 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Comment A blue sky would really set the building out. I know it's not always possible. Also taken at a time of day when the sun is not really intense, but a blue sky is still visible is good. --Kalmia 20:32, 23 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Not promoted -- Moondigger 01:08, 25 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
