 * Reason:The photo perfectly illustrates the architecture and layout of the main feature of the historic building. It is technically superb: well composed, brilliant colours, perfect focus.

 * Weak Oppose. I wouldn't say it's technical superb. In fact, it's quite technically flawed in my opinion. It's a really interesting scene and compositionally it's fine, but there is a lot of chromatic aberration on the sides, the stained glass is washed out and has blown highlights and the shadows are a little dark and muddy. I'm quite biased towards these sort of photos as I've been doing a lot of similar photography recently. I put quite a lot of work into mosaic-stitched, HDR tone mapped post processing to get my images looking crisp and clean, and I just don't think this image matches those standards. I'm not saying every image needs a similar level of complexity for me to support it, but some scenes such as this one, with stained glass, really cry out for that kind of processing. &#208;iliff    &#171;&#187;  (Talk)  09:45, 21 March 2014 (UTC)

 * Weak Support — The lighting is a little uneven, but otherwise great photograph. Sanyambahga (talk) 06:39, 26 March 2014 (UTC)
