- Support Interesting (such old roller shutters with chains are really rare nowadays in Germany) and good technical quality. The lateral light which emphasizes the structure of the façade and the effective composition make it a FP to me. Beauty of decay … --Aristeas (talk) 10:04, 12 March 2023 (UTC)
- Weak Support A very beautiful picture. The weathering is well taken. However, with such images there is what I would prefer: black and white. The color is rather inconsequential in this image, black and white could still clearly emphasize the structures. --XRay 💬 10:27, 12 March 2023 (UTC)
- Support Per Aristeas - plus, I actually really like the color in this image. The muted tones of brown fit the mood of decay. --Kritzolina (talk) 11:09, 12 March 2023 (UTC)

- Support I like the color, too ... it's not one you associate with Germany, more like the Middle East, a perception reinforced by the weathered look. I also think you could crop the sides in to get rid of that distracting shadow (see note). Daniel Case (talk) 17:52, 14 March 2023 (UTC)
- Comment Thank you. I'm struggling with your suggestion to crop it that much. It would delete parts I like because they are showing the structure of the façade. --August Geyler (talk) 00:18, 15 March 2023 (UTC)

- Oppose I don't get it. Charlesjsharp (talk) 18:48, 14 March 2023 (UTC)
- I understand that you don't get it - I also don't get every nominated image. But do you have an actual reason to oppose? For me this kind of comment is very confusing. There are lots of things I don't understand, but if others who understand them find them valid and worthy, I respect their opinion, as long as I don't have a clear reason to object.

- It is difficult to explain without being rude. I think it is a poor composition of a mundane subject. Can it have architectural interest? - surely it would have been preserved. There is no 'natural decay'. Someone has recently slapped fresh mortar on the wall and some has gone on the metallener Verblendung at the top of the window. Looking on Google Maps Street View, there were much more 'original' walls and shutters to photograph. The top of the image is not in focus. The crop at the bottom is either too tight or not tight enough. The shadow at the left is distracting. Sorry. Charlesjsharp (talk) 22:02, 17 March 2023 (UTC)
- Thank you for going through the effort of trying to not be rude. I understand how this can be difficult and time consuming, especially if one lists all the things one is not fully happy with. But how about adding just one or two of these points (e.g. Top not in focus, not ideal crop at the bottom, distracting shadow) to your objections, instead of the generic and arbitrary sounding "I don't get it"? I think that would help the nominator, photographer, but also the other persons discussing the image. Thank you again! Kritzolina (talk) 08:33, 18 March 2023 (UTC)
