Sanja Matsuri, 2006

 * Reason:I have always thought that this image was very exciting. A sea of people extending as far back as the camera can see! It is also a great depiction of Sanja Matsuri, a large Japanese Shinto festival.

 * Support (Edit 1.) Love the detail and the fact that you can see the expressions on everyone's face in the crowd; almost gives the impression of being there. Sasata (talk) 07:00, 4 February 2009 (UTC)


 * Oppose both For composition, the framing is awkward with the pillar/wire and the mikoshi where is is, a few feet to left or right for a better angle would have made the difference. Mfield (talk) 02:47, 5 February 2009 (UTC)
