- Oppose - The image is nice to look at for sure, but the blurriness of some of the people along with the crop, specifically the banister in the bottom of the image puts it below FP standards for me. Tiptoety talk 02:59, 15 September 2009 (UTC)
- Comment I'm not worried by blurry people here, after all it is low light conditions needing a long exposure. The main problem is the crop, difficult to overcome without using an extreme fish-eye lens, or stitching multiple photos[1]. Perhaps a square crop would be more appealing. --Tony Wills (talk) 06:02, 15 September 2009 (UTC)
- Info The banister in the bottom is there on purpose, to increase the sense of depth. The fact that the people that are moving are blurry is unavoidable given the light conditions (flash is not an option there). -- NormanB (talk) 10:55, 15 September 2009 (UTC)
- Comment I like the fact you can see the base of both spirals, all the way up to that detail of the banister. Your photo has a lot going for it, and it is a difficult subject - the version I linked to was made up of 6 photos stitched together but that wasn't perfect. Without stitching I think the only way to portray it is with a super wide angle lens. --Tony Wills (talk) 12:31, 15 September 2009 (UTC)
- Oppose Too noisy, lot of CA. The photo that Tony Wills showed has better composition. —kallerna™ 11:46, 15 September 2009 (UTC)
- Oppose Far too noisy for FP. I'd love to see a good shot of the staircase featured, though. -- JovanCormac 13:12, 15 September 2009 (UTC)

- Thank you, didn't know about that one, though its quality is far from perfect, too. -- JovanCormac 05:29, 16 September 2009 (UTC)

- Comment Did I just see this pic in B&W on reddit? --Calibas (talk) 01:34, 16 September 2009 (UTC)
- Question If you did, do you have a URL for me? I'd like to see it too. -- NormanB (talk) 10:52, 16 September 2009 (UTC)
