 * Reason:*It's a well composed view of the Old Town Square in Prague at night. Detail is good and verticals have been corrected. Unfortunately as is the case with long exposures, people are blurred and there is some ghosting in the foreground but I think this is unavoidable.

 * Oppose Maybe ghosts are unavoidable as you are saying but too distracting. Sorry Diliff. --Laitche (talk) 02:16, 21 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Weak Support Nice composition and night-lighting. I have no issue with ghosts, as long-exposure captures the dynamics of the place. Seeing the sharp faces of some random individuals in the foreground would be truly distracting. EV would be higher in Old Town Square (Prague), but that's a sad little stub. -- ELEKHHT 10:03, 21 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Support I think it is an accurate rendition - I've been there. My mum's parents were Czech, she liked the photo fwiw also. JJ Harrison (talk)
 * Support Ghosts not a problem for me, the people are not the subject. -- WingtipvorteX  PTT   ∅  18:48, 25 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Support Though I'd almost be tempted, next time you do a picture like this, to do a really, really long exposure at very high F-stop (or do I mean low f-stop? It's technically a fraction) so that the ghosts are more long-trail and thus more interesting. Adam Cuerden (talk) 14:18, 26 June 2013 (UTC)
 * High is the preferred term. The problem that you run into there with digital cameras is diffraction which can compromise the overall sharpness of the image. Cowtowner (talk) 18:07, 26 June 2013 (UTC)


 * Weak support, I think taking this closer to twilight would have given better relief of the buildings and balanced the artificial light with the natural better. That said, still works. Cowtowner (talk) 18:07, 26 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Support. Nice one. Can't we use the ghosting in this image in the article ghosting?—BNK(talk) 01:51, 27 June 2013 (UTC)
 * That's a different kind of ghosting. This is motion blur, which is already pretty well illustrated. Cowtowner (talk) 04:49, 27 June 2013 (UTC)
