•  Support I was surprised we didn't have a FP of the Western Wall on Commons, given its cultural significance and visibility (we do have this one featured on hewiki, but its purpose is more historical). I'm nominating this one (as opposed to say, this) because I like the way the moderate distance and vertical orientation include some feeling of the people standing there while keeping the wall as primary subject. — Rhododendrites ^talk |  05:19, 9 December 2017 (UTC)
•  Comment - I like the wall and the composition generally, but I feel like I'm going to slip to the left. I haven't been there since 1977. Does the floor slope that way? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 08:49, 9 December 2017 (UTC)

• @Ikan Kekek: I couldn't remember, so just now checked the other images I took that day and they do, indeed, show a slight slope off to the left side. — Rhododendrites ^talk |  15:07, 9 December 2017 (UTC)

•  Comment - I was there once, long time ago. It's quite an experience. PumpkinSky talk 19:28, 9 December 2017 (UTC)
•  Oppose Having been there too, this just doesn't work as an FP for me. It conveys the scale of the wall, yes, but that's about it. Daniel Case (talk) 22:21, 9 December 2017 (UTC)
•  I withdraw my nomination — Rhododendrites ^talk |  22:36, 9 December 2017 (UTC)
