Info "Isbjerget" (The Iceberg) is a residential building complex in Aarhus Docklands, an area of the Port of Aarhus, Denmark, which previously was used as a container port. In 2013, this project won the international MIPIM prize within the category "Best Residential Development". The photo is taken from the aft deck of the high speed ferry commuting between Aarhus, Jutland and Sjællands Odde, Zealand.

Comment Interesting, but personally, I prefer the other angle because that helps to isolate the ensemble. However that image has lots of heat haze (which is surprising in Denmark, in Autumn?which might be due to exhaust heat?). Imo this version is also quite magenta. --DXR (talk) 20:10, 7 October 2014 (UTC)- DXR Thanks for your careful review and observations. I actually also prefer the other angle, which looks much more three-dimensional, but has heat haze as you mention. It is due to the large exhaust pipes of the high speed ferry, which emitted a stream of hot air passing in between the lens and buildings. This one magenta you say? Hmmm, you may be right. Let me check on that. -- Slaunger (talk) 20:16, 7 October 2014 (UTC)

- Oops, sorry, Kadellar, I had not noticed you had voted pro just a few minutes before. Sorry for having wasted your time with voting, and for supporting the (for me) suboptimal image. -- Slaunger (talk) 19:27, 8 October 2014 (UTC)
Just thinking now that I see my own nomination in the FPC flow: Would I support this myself: No! Subject it-self is featurable, but to be revisited from a better vantage point and in better light conditions. -- Slaunger (talk) 19:19, 8 October 2014 (UTC)
