Info The view from the nave looking east in St Edmundsbury Cathedral in Suffolk, England. This church was mostly constructed in the early sixteenth-century by John Wastell, a mason who also worked on the famous chapel at King's College, Cambridge. It was made a cathedral in 1914, and much of the current architecture is C20th Gothic revival. IMO one of Diliff's best, and almost 70mpx of sharp detail. created by Diliff - uploaded by Diliff - nominated by Cmao20 -- Cmao20 (talk) 18:36, 25 March 2020 (UTC)

Oppose Need vertical fix and the foreground on bottom are out of deep of field --Wilfredor (talk) 18:49, 25 March 2020 (UTC)
Comment - Looks good to me, but I'd like to know what you feel needs to be fixed about the verticals before I vote. Maybe I'll see what you see if you explain what to look for. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 22:28, 25 March 2020 (UTC)- IMO this is something of a harsh critique Wilfredor. You are right that the foreground at the bottom is out of the depth of field, but this is true for plenty of church FPs, see this one which you nominated yourself and which passed by an overwhelming 16/0/0 margin but for which the same criticism holds, if anything more so. As for the verticals, I can't really see any significant issue, but it's worth keeping in mind that the pillars in some of these churches aren't perfectly straight anyway. See this where the third pillar on the right visibly bows out slightly. Cmao20 (talk) 23:36, 25 March 2020 (UTC)
- I added a note about of the vertical problem --Wilfredor (talk) 15:35, 26 March 2020 (UTC)
- Probably not the fault of the photographer in that case. Your naked eyes would likely see the same. - Benh (talk) 16:33, 26 March 2020 (UTC)

- Comment Maybe the two first rows of benches could be cropped, greatly improving it (IMO). - Benh (talk) 09:15, 26 March 2020 (UTC)

- Support - I'd support the proposed crop, but still an FP to me. Now that the verticals "problem" is shown in a note, I still don't see the issue. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 19:35, 26 March 2020 (UTC)
- I'm not sure I like a crop quite as radical as the one Benh has suggested as it cuts a bit too much of the floor off for me and leaves the composition looking slightly unbalanced, too much ceiling and not enough floor. Have left a note for a slightly less radical crop that I prefer, I'll put it up as an alternative if others prefer it. Cmao20 (talk) 22:36, 26 March 2020 (UTC)
