 * Oppose It is a nice picture, but tilt... And I would like to see better quality. Change to Support Fir0002's edit.  Viva La   V  i  e   Boheme 
 * Comment Uploaded an edit. I rotated it, sharpened it a tiny bit, and adjusted the contrast. « amiИa . skyшalkeя (¿Hábleme?)  22:59, 1 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Oppose in its current form. The problem I always have with HDR images is that there tends to be an obvious halo around areas of contrast. I'm not sure what method you've used to blend the exposures but perhaps you could adjust it for a much smaller radius. Diliff  | (Talk)   (Contribs) 23:54, 1 August 2006 (UTC)
 * [[Image:Symbol support vote.svg|15px]] Support Edit 2 Great lighting. --Fir0002 12:34, 2 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Just to let you know, your edit didn't correct the tilt and has washed out the contrast a bit... I really get the impression that either your monitor is not seeing the same thing that mine is (I admit that the 'fault' could be my displays rather than yours), or you just have a preference for lighter shadow detail. In the end, its just personal aesthetic preference, but I can't help but feel the original's contrast is more natural and just as viewable. Diliff  | (Talk)   (Contribs) 21:08, 2 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Yeah I forgot about the tilt, I'll fix that today. I wouldn't say that I always have a preference for lighter shadow detail, but I think it'd be fair to say I generally do. Particularly with this image, as what drawed me to it was the "soft" lighting. Sure it could be my monitor, but if that is so, chances are it's not just me with that kind of a monitor and an edit should be made so that it looks good on them. --Fir0002 22:03, 2 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Oppose Not convinced about the blending. There's some ghosting on the handrails at to the top of the foreground tower, and in between the crossmembers there's some odd lighter patches and artefacts. Also not a fan of the halos - might support a re-combination of the exposures if the above are corrected. --Yummifruitbat 17:45, 2 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Support IMO Edit 1 is the best. -- Froggydarb croak 10:07, 3 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Support either edit as long as the tilt is fixed. -- Tewy  06:57, 4 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Support -- unedited version, as it has the best colour --T-rex 03:21, 6 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Support (either edit) - looks beautiful. - Cribananda 06:06, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Support looks good indeed. There is some blurring on the top right tower railing though. --GunnarRene 21:22, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Support Good Picture! --Inklein

 * Support Edit 2, nice colors and composition. -Ravedave 17:24, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Support edit 2, by far the best. Original is tilted quite a bit. --Nebular110 22:39, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Support Edit 2 is fabulous! InvictaHOG 17:22, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
