•  Weak oppose We've had so many nominations of Singapore skyline pictures that I think we can again be selective on which ones we choose to feature. Personally, I find it less than ideal that Swissôtel The Stamford has been cropped on the right. —Percival Kestreltail (talk) 03:02, 13 April 2020 (UTC)
•  Comment My intention was to gather The Fullerton Hotel, the Esplanade Bridge and the domes of the Theatres on the Bay (Esplanade) in the same frame. I don't think we have similar (or even close) compositions of this view already -- Basile Morin (talk) 03:44, 13 April 2020 (UTC)

•  Support When you consider how many London cityscapes we have featured, I think we can afford some more for Singapore if they are different views. Cmao20 (talk) 18:29, 13 April 2020 (UTC)

•  Oppose sorry, but the composition just doesn't work for me. my eye is drawn to the largest buildings, which are clustered at the extreme edges and partially cut off. if the main subjects are the lower buildings in the middle, I would figure a tighter frame on them? — Rhododendrites ^talk |  00:22, 14 April 2020 (UTC)

•  Comment You put words to my vague gut instincts! —Percival Kestreltail (talk) 01:33, 14 April 2020 (UTC)
• This skyscraper was intentionally included. Although I agree it is eye-catching, a crop wouldn't change that much. I gave a try (even before your remark), and then considered the opportunity for an alternative. But still prefer this composition. For me this left part may be an entrance to get into the image, and the bridge too -- Basile Morin (talk) 11:31, 14 April 2020 (UTC)

•  Oppose The visual weight is distributed too close to the sides. We have several large buildings very close to the left edge, a sea of nondescript buildings in the middle, and then a moderately tall tower (larger than anything else in the vicinity) cut off on the right. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 05:12, 15 April 2020 (UTC)

  "A sea of nondescript buildings", there were at least three major ones. However  Done more buildings identified now -- Basile Morin (talk) 07:28, 15 April 2020 (UTC)

  Apologies if I wasn't clear - I was referring to the visual prominence rather than notability of the buildings. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 13:10, 15 April 2020 (UTC)

•  Comment I understand that the emphasis is on the middle, but I agree with King of Hearts that there appears to just be a sea of nothingness in the middle. —Percival Kestreltail (talk) 17:48, 15 April 2020 (UTC)

•  Weak oppose - I fall on the side of the opposers here. This photo is certainly valuable and high-quality, but the composition is just not fantastic to my eyes. Compare this great panorama, admittedly a blue hour shot, but just a great composition (I didn't vote on it because I was still away from home, without access to Wi-Fi at the time). This is also a much more interesting composition. I also like this night shot better. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 07:39, 15 April 2020 (UTC)
•  Weak oppose denoise overdone, soft contrast and edge pixeling because oversharpening --Wilfredor (talk) 11:50, 15 April 2020 (UTC)

No. Shot at ISO 100, no need to denoise much -- Basile Morin (talk) 23:03, 15 April 2020 (UTC)

•  Oppose Technical quality is really good in my opinion, but in terms of composition I'll have to agree with the other opposers. --El Grafo (talk) 10:25, 16 April 2020 (UTC)
