 * Reason:Good detail of an interesting building designed by Douglas Cardinal, attractive lighting, and hundreds of visitors not in the way. Quality is pretty good and resolution is, too.  Featured on de.wiki and Commons.

 * Support as nominator -- Mae din\ talk 14:35, 23 January 2011 (UTC)
 *  Weak Oppose It's good, but I kinda wanna see the whole building... I don't like that it's cut off... And the glare on the lights on the RHS is a pet peev of mine in night shots... gaz hiley .co.uk  15:22, 23 January 2011 (UTC)
 * The building is huge and there are many good sides, and other interesting buildings in the museum complex. There is certainly scope for whole building FPs and detail FPs; having the one doesn't preclude the other.  I like that this focuses on one main feature and captures some atmosphere.

 * Support I find this to be an outstanding example of architectural photography. It is very eye-catching. Greg L (talk) 20:04, 23 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Support As above. Cowtowner (talk) 21:35, 23 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Oppose Ignoring "cut off" arguments it still doesn't give a good feel for the architectural feature that it is illustrating (front on). Nice as architectural photography, not so good as far as EV is concerned. JJ Harrison (talk) 01:16, 24 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Weak oppose per JJ. Decent quality, but after seeing the other angle, you really lose a good view of the entire building.  Spencer T♦ C 01:47, 24 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Weak oppose Not convinced of the framing, and while night images tend to look good, they have less detail. Weak EV per JJ. --Elekhh (talk) 05:36, 24 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Support. I like the angle and I think it does give a good sense of the building. Perhaps not a good sense of the size and overall structure, but that's not always possible. &#208;iliff    &#171;&#187;  (Talk)  13:36, 24 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Support - it may not give the best sense of the building, but it gives a good sense of the architect. I'm not that familiar with Cardinal's work, but the moment I saw the photograph I guessed who designed the building without reading the caption.  That's a mark of good architectural photography to me, and that's why I support it for FP. -- Ser Amantio di Nicolao Che dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 16:13, 24 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Support I think the night view doesn't detract that much from the educational value, and I don't mind that it's cut off—focuses on the very distinctive entrance. / ƒETCH COMMS  /  22:47, 24 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Support As per Nicolao. SMasters (talk) 03:34, 26 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Support excellent. -- Felix König   ✉  19:07, 29 January 2011 (UTC)
