 * Oppose. There are a number of issues with the image. The bottom part of the building is cropped. The image is also slightly out of focus. For a Nikon camera, I suggest to shoot the image again with the scene mode selected as Landscape→Architecture for better results. Also try shooting on a brighter day. — Ambuj Saxena (☎) 13:58, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
