India's growth


This picture clearly shows the rapid growth in India. The highway bridge being built across the backwaters is an infrastucture development project undetaken by the government in the hope that India's rapid growth will reach its poor. The outdated fishing boats in the foreground show how fast the change is.

The picture above is my creation and it appears in the article about nagapattinam.

 * Oppose. Doesn't meet minimum resoution guidelines; sky on left side of image blown out. -- moondigger 14:43, 9 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Try it now... —Vanderdecken&there4; ∫ξφ 15:07, 9 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Yes, but I didn't want to revert the original uploader's file. He must have had some reason why he didn't want the high res version included.  In any case, the sky (and parts of the bridge) are still blown out badly on the left. Also, I don't think the picture "clearly shows the rapid growth in India," as the nominator claims. As it stands, the image is simply a picture of an under-construction bridge.  Bridges can be built (in fact, they usually are built) for reasons other than rapid growth.-- moondigger 15:29, 9 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Oppose. per moon digger Ch ild zy talkcontribs 16:06, 9 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Oppose Bridge is leaning heavily, those construction guys had better put it right real soon! - Adrian Pingstone 16:17, 9 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Oppose Blurry, tilted, poor resolution, boring doesn't really illustrate India's growth, left of the image is blown out... Politic a l Mind, July 29, 2024 (UTC).
 * Strong Oppose. Very poor quality. And why isnt it the photo of the completed bridge, instead of the under construction image. Also, the sky is blurred and of poor quality. Thanks. AJ24 02:44, 15 July 2006 (UTC)
