•  Info all by Der Wolf im Wald -- Wolf im Wald 16:27, 21 December 2015 (UTC)
•  Support -- Wolf im Wald 16:27, 21 December 2015 (UTC)
•  Support as cool and reduced as the construction itself. The image supports the simplicity. But probably, it was pretty warm there.. ;-) --Hubertl 19:22, 21 December 2015 (UTC)
•  Support INeverCry 21:52, 21 December 2015 (UTC)
•  Support --Medium⁶₉ ^{You wanted talk to me?} 22:45, 21 December 2015 (UTC)
•  Support - The one thing I find jarring is that the nearest part of the picture is blurry, but that's evident only at full resolution and I'm willing to overlook it in keeping with the overall excellence of the picture. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 01:02, 22 December 2015 (UTC)
•  Support awesome! --Martin Falbisoner (talk) 06:09, 22 December 2015 (UTC)
•  Oppose with deep regret Great color. Great detail. But the distortion of the columns goes beyond even what that could make me overlook. Daniel Case (talk) 07:19, 22 December 2015 (UTC)

  Extreme perspective! ;-) The distance to the building was only 15 meters... Wolf im Wald 14:42, 22 December 2015 (UTC)

   Question Is the metadata correct? Focal lenth=70mm?? --Martin Falbisoner (talk) 07:25, 23 December 2015 (UTC)

  It's the focal length of the single images. I tranfered the original exif-data to the stitched image manually. -- Wolf im Wald 10:49, 23 December 2015 (UTC)

•  Question I very much wish to support this, but one detail bothers me: shouldn't the stripes on the Greek flag be white?.. --Óðinn (talk) 18:18, 22 December 2015 (UTC)
•  Support As Daniel mentioned: the distortion at the columns is relatively extreme but it is only a tiny part and does not bother me. The level of detail is amazing. I would personally apply some selective NR on the sky. --Tuxyso (talk) 23:48, 22 December 2015 (UTC)
•  Support — Julian H.^✈ 10:36, 23 December 2015 (UTC)
•  Support 😄 ArionEstar 😜 (talk) 15:23, 23 December 2015 (UTC)
•  Support There is some posterization on edges, but downscale it to 20Mpix and everything is fine for sure --A.Savin 13:54, 24 December 2015 (UTC)
•  Oppose Distortion too extreme on columns/statues due to close position of camera and extreme angle of view. I would probably support the central building as a crop, though the flag is over-dominant. [The image itself is over-sharpened, with the whole sky fizzing -- really I assume this has been downsized so a downsized ISO 100 full-frame image should have zero noise -- that's not an oppose reason but there's some improvement to technique possible). -- Colin (talk) 16:45, 29 December 2015 (UTC)
•  Support --Ralf Roleček 21:56, 29 December 2015 (UTC)
