 * Neutral It looks like a great picture, but the white balance is off and the tree on the right is cut plus plus its tilted a bit.  Noah¢s   ( Talk )  00:31, 10 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment Suggest cropping/rotation?  Durova Charge! 00:33, 10 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Info - No tilt, just the effect of perpspective and the not pefect geometry of the whole building (please notice the verticals). I might try a crop later, thank you -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 09:50, 10 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Instead of cropping it, how about taking more of it? Include the tree and tilt the angle the right way up. Then it would be a great picture. Dengero (talk) 06:42, 10 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Oppose It's neither stunning/interesting or particularly enc. I don't see how this particular building illustrates a whole town (Porto Covo) or the municipality of Sines (and having it illustrate the "parishers" of Sines further reduces the enc value of this pic). Furthermore the technical quality is quite poor (sharpness) for such an easily reproducible shot. The scene would also have been improved if the trees weren't in their "dead" winter state but had some leaves. --Fir0002 09:04, 10 February 2008 (UTC)
 * But if they had leaves then you wouldn't see the building properly. Dengero (talk) 09:47, 10 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Oppose. Nice colours, may do well on Commons, but it's not an encyclopaedic crop. We need to see the whole house. Samsara (talk • contribs) 20:25, 10 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Oppose per Fir and Samsara. Spikebrennan (talk) 22:09, 10 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Oppose. It is tilted, and the image is of the middle of the house which does not illustrate the entire structure. It is nothing special, and in no way is FP worthy. Juliancolton Talk 00:01, 11 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Oppose. We can't see the whole house because of the trees. Galileo01 (talk) 21:42, 11 February 2008 (UTC)
