•  Oppose It's awesome, but: the handrail is almost white and the size is too small. —kallerna™ 13:21, 24 January 2009 (UTC)
•  Support Stop complaining about downsampling and be glad that the image is on Commons. This is a repository for free images, not a crusade for the five freedoms. It is a privilege for Commons to receive the file in a free format, not a right to receive it in the highest quality. Do not bite the hand that feeds you. This image has a great composition, cool subject matter... who cares bout the downsampling, it could even have been cropped would we not know better.
