Support - With these clouds and light, this picture really struck me, so I wondered how it would strike you. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 07:48, 7 November 2018 (UTC)
Oppose Compare with existing FP File:Chambord Castle Northwest facade.jpg. 15 vs 97 megapixels of details for a start. The composition here is strangely off to the right (though the building itself is not symmetrical, Benh's image has the centre of the building in the centre of the frame). The bank and building are not perpendicular to the camera view, resulting in an angle on both horizontals, which Benh's image gets perfect. In processing there has been much adjustment of levels and way too much local contrast (Clarity) applied. The effect is initially "striking" but eventually hurts the eyes, especially in a colour photo. Additionally, the building has two lots of scaffolding, which is unfortunate. I like the clouds, though I'd have cloned out the birds as they just look like dirty spots. -- Colin (talk) 09:08, 7 November 2018 (UTC)
- Thanks for your detailed review. I agree than Benh's photo is splendid. I like the birds in both pictures, though. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 09:15, 7 November 2018 (UTC)
- Oppose per Colin. Editing is a bit overly dramatic, leading to haloes along high-contrast edges (such as roof→←sky) --El Grafo (talk)
- Oppose Good photo but not the best.--Peulle (talk) 20:11, 7 November 2018 (UTC)
I withdraw my nomination. Thanks for having a look. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 20:16, 7 November 2018 (UTC)
