 * Comment Beautiful image, but why is there a giant dark wedge on the right hand side? Adam Cuerden (talk) 05:37, 31 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Oppose, suggest Speedy Close Due to big issue with picture ie large chunk missing from right hand side. Plus this angle is poor - no idea what is on the top of the pillar at this angle. There are high buildings around this as evident by the background, so surely a more elavated (and complete) picture can be taken. gaz hiley  08:51, 31 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Oppose Per above. I don't think a speedy close is necessary. Someone might like this. Dusty 777 16:09, 31 December 2012 (UTC)
 * If it wasn't for the missing bit, I'd gladly support; as it is, that's an awkward flaw for a replacable FP to have, and it's not like this is a Mars Rover composite or other situation where there's no chance of it being done over. Tempted to try using restoration tricks to fill it in, but I'd need reference pics. Adam Cuerden (talk) 16:43, 31 December 2012 (UTC)
 * For me that dark wedge is purely an aesthetic issue since it's not a part of the column and doesn't obstruct its view whatsoever. Brandmeistertalk  17:32, 31 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Well, yes, and I wouldn't suggest removing it from any articles, but Featured pictures kind of requires paying attention to aesthetic issues. Adam Cuerden (talk) 23:33, 1 January 2013 (UTC)
