St Pete Times Forum At Sunset


This picture shows both the unique architecture of the building formally known as the Ice Palace and characteristically picturesque sunsets of the Tampa Bay area. IMHO, the colors of the light between the clouds and the pink facade of the Forum makes for an excellent contrast. Appears in: St. Pete Times Forum Created by: Christopher Hollis for Wdwic Pictures.

 * It's a good image, and I think it would be a better image to use in the infobox than the current close-up of the name on the glass. However, in order to judge if an image is sharp enough, I like to look at it at around 1000 pixels resolution on the longest dimension, which is the minimum resolution.  If an image doesn't look really, really sharp at that resolution, then I don't consider it be sharp enough to be a featured picture.  This image is fairly sharp, but not really sharp, at that resolution.  At full resolution, it's grainy and fuzzy.  Also, on the left-hand side of the image, it's hard to visually distinguish the St. Pete Times Forum from the other buildings in the background; I think this is an effect of both the lighting (low contrast between the buildings) and the lack of sharpness.  Additionally the blown highlights from the lights and the huge number of people bother me a bit, and might bother other FP voters more.  I know it's encyclopedic to have people around the building, but it's also encyclopedic to just focus on the building, and there are plenty of times and days when there aren't many people nearby.
