Info Monastery of Batalha, Portugal: cloister of D. João I. The building was started in 1386 and finished around 1517. The columns and decoration of the gothic arcs were added in the 16th century. -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 19:12, 17 October 2021 (UTC)

Oppose Very nice layout but on closer inspection the blown highlights interfere enormously.--Ermell (talk) 21:41, 17 October 2021 (UTC)
Question On what? -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 22:09, 17 October 2021 (UTC)
- A bit of blown sky coming through the openings is not the end of the world, but the lack of detail on the ground outside is a problem. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 23:35, 17 October 2021 (UTC)
Comment In addition to Ermell's comment about overexposure: Would you happen to have any frames from further down? Right now it looks a bit top-heavy with so much vertical space at the top and no floor at the bottom. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 22:03, 17 October 2021 (UTC)
- You are right, it would be better with a bit more space at the bottom. But I don't have it. Alvesgaspar (talk) 22:11, 17 October 2021 (UTC)
Weak oppose it’s a pity but the blown ground (plus the blown parts of the columns) and the vertically unbalanced composition spoil it. Even if you crop the top quarter out, the foreground bottom would still be missing. --Kreuzschnabel 10:14, 18 October 2021 (UTC)
I withdraw my nomination I think you are right about the ground being overexposed and I apologize for not having valued the issue. But I still think this is a gorgeous view. Thanks for the comments. Alvesgaspar (talk) 10:28, 18 October 2021 (UTC)
- I agree it is a great view, just a shame about the exposure. I assume you don't have another shot with lower exposure? -- Colin (talk) 10:46, 18 October 2021 (UTC)
