 * Comment. The camera appears to be pointing to the far left corner of the room rather than to its center. That slight asymmetry makes everything look a little twisted even though the verticals are properly vertical. —David Eppstein (talk) 05:22, 5 October 2019 (UTC)
 * I think your eyes are playing tricks on you because the turbines are asymmetrical. Following the streak of metal covering on the floor and the middle gear on the turbines leads you straight through the middle of the room to the middle window in the background.

 * True the camera seems to be positioned in the middle of the room, but it isn't pointed perfectly toward the middle of the end-wall. The end-wall windows aren't centered within the frame (horizontally). The asymmetry isn't large, Support. Bammesk (talk) 14:13, 5 October 2019 (UTC) . . . Also: the article is poorly cited.
 * My point is that it looks strange to have the perspective corrected in such a way that the lines that are vertical in 3d are all vertical in the frame but so that the big stripe up the middle of the floor is far from vertical. If the camera were pointing exactly down this stripe instead of towards the corner, then the stripe would line up as vertical in the frame as well. —David Eppstein (talk) 17:00, 5 October 2019 (UTC)
 * I agree, the photo is not symmetrical. Not too excessive, for me, not to support though. The middle window of the background end-wall being off center, and the tiles in the foreground are the two things that standout for me. Bammesk (talk) 19:14, 5 October 2019 (UTC)
 * The vanishing point is correct and perfect. The only imperfection is the crop is just shifted to the left to balance the asymmetry in turbines. The big floor stripe in the middle is not supposed to be vertical . See: File:Railroad in Northumberland County, Pennsylvania.JPG. It is supposed to vanish to the middle. --- Coffee  and crumbs  19:34, 5 October 2019 (UTC)

 * Support – I don't see a problem with perspective. The photographer has shifted his vantage point for reasons of composition and framing. Image illustrates subject well, detail is excellent. The fact that this hydro plant is nearly a century old and still operating makes for an intriguing FP. – Sca (talk) 12:53, 8 October 2019 (UTC)
