•  Support Pretty, a bit unrealistic (shadows are quite bright), but overall very appealing. Also calming to see that there are at least three banks and one watch shop in the image :D --DXR (talk) 20:36, 17 August 2015 (UTC)

• Yes to tell you the truth, I spent a bit of time in fine tuning how bright (or dark) the dark parts should be. I even let a few nights go to clean up my mind and come back. I darkened twice compared to my first version and the best compromise I came up with is this. My thinking is if I darken further, I loose visibility on the building, and there's no point in using HDR. But I agree with you darkening a bit more could be more realistic. - Benh (talk) 20:57, 17 August 2015 (UTC)

• Yeah, as an artwork to hang on the wall it is great. I feel we sometimes optimize such images a bit too much towards what can be done to get ideal levels of brightness on the sky and shadows without considering that the reality is suboptimal. But for COM:FPC it is quite acceptable to do that. --DXR (talk) 11:33, 18 August 2015 (UTC)
