 * Comment: I've gotta say, I really love this photo, but I'm not seeing the EV. What's it showing? What does it add to the article that the bazillion other photos don't? J Milburn (talk) 10:40, 25 August 2010 (UTC)
 * It adds the urban context of the location.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 14:12, 25 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Strong Oppose Too dark to see enough about the stage, other than the lit parts which aren't very clear due to the exposure setting used. Stage is also tilted to the left and looks like it's about to fall onto the crowd, and the rest of the buildings in the background are tilted right. The crowd is distracting at the bottom of the picture and the eye is drawn to the performer, but this is supposed to be about the stage. also most of the structure is not in the picture - just a small part of the stage and a little bit of the overhanging metal parts... The glare from the screen is also very distracting... For this to be good EV for the stage it should be a straight on shot in daylight of an empty stage... Not a snapshot from a random concert... gaz hiley .co.uk  14:20, 25 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Oppose Lack of EV. It is dramatic and of high quality. I like the balance of lighting between the foreground and the buildings in the background. I really like the way light reflects off the ceiling elements above. However, *dramatic* does not lend to EV, it can only make something more artful and eye-catching. I have no idea what this building really looks like overall because it shows only a closeup of jumbled visual elements. I should think that slightly brighter (but equally dramatic), further-away shot showing more of the structure would more effectively add EV to the subject “Pritzker Pavilion at night.” Greg L (talk) 17:20, 25 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Oppose per above comments. P. S. Burton  (talk)  19:56, 25 August 2010 (UTC)
