Leicester Castle

Original - The Castle Hall in Leicester, England. The c. 1695 front hides a hall built in the eleventh or twelfth century. The Great Hall formerly held the city's Assize Court, and in the fifteenth century was the location of the Parliament of Bats. The building is Grade I listed.

High res, high EV. I think it's an interesting building – but possibly too boring for a feature picture?

• Not too boring, and definitely fantastic resolution. The left most photo seems like it was oof, unfortunately, and the top right "turret" thing looks like the perspective is strange somehow. Aaadddaaammm (talk) 11:16, 17 April 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for your comments. I'm working on a new version which aims to fix some of the softness issues (caused by the panorama stitching process, as far as I can tell). As for the window on the right, I think the odd appearance may because of the way the window is constructed. It is a very old building, after all. NotFromUtrecht (talk) 10:30, 20 April 2011 (UTC)

I'd probably support this. Hopefully you used horizontal and vertical control points to get the perspective right. JJ Harrison (talk) 04:03, 27 June 2011 (UTC)

• Is it just me, or is the building slightly tilted? Sp33dyphil ^{"Ad astra"} 03:30, 12 July 2011 (UTC)

Thanks everyone for the feedback. I've noticed a stitching error, so will have to do some more work on the image before submitting it as a FPC. I'll check the tilting issue when I do this. As far as I'm concerned, this nomination can now be closed. NotFromUtrecht (talk) 09:25, 24 July 2011 (UTC)
