The Seine

 * Reason:This is an HDR photo I took of the Seine, whilst trying out the new technique. I like this image for the encyclopedia because it shows the Seine's prominence in Paris, the Musée d'Orsay on the left, the Grand Palais to the right, and in the far background, the Pont Alexandre III, it also shows one of the tourboats moving down the river--a common view for city visitors. The image is of sufficient resolution (1000px width), was given to the public domain, and is applicable to the Seine article.

 * Weak oppose because it's just too dark for my tastes, but that's just me. it'd be nice if the sky was a bit lighter, less dark purple. But again, that's just me. Intothewoods29 (talk) 16:26, 29 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Ya, I hear you. I thought about that during processing, but opted to go for the contrast. I wanted the sunbeam to stand out. Lazulilasher (talk) 16:39, 29 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Weak Oppose size is too small, sorry. —αἰτίας •'discussion'• 17:40, 29 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Oppose Overcooked HDR. Mfield (talk) 17:42, 29 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Oppose - barely hits resolution requirements (which are minimum reasonable) and the HDR is overdone. Too in-your-face and showing off, more of an artistic technique than getting more information in the image. Too arty, less encyclopaedic. —Vanderdecken∴ ∫ξφ 19:26, 29 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Oppose. Way too much HDR, very unrealistic. Kaldari (talk) 19:50, 29 July 2008 (UTC)
