•  Oppose — Background is too distracting. Indon 08:37, 6 September 2006 (UTC)
  •  Comment I have another version using f/1.4, which the background was blurred--Johnson Lau 14:05, 6 September 2006 (UTC)
    •  Comment I'm still opposing it to be FP, sorry. The shadow on the statue is too harsh. The picture looks like an ordinary touristic photo. Really, if you can retake this scene picture again, can you wait for a better light than this? Indon 11:50, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
•  Oppose — Background ; the subject is cut. Rama 09:57, 6 September 2006 (UTC)
•  Support nice photo. The Hong Kong background is imho part of the composition and fits very well to Bruce Lee. Maybe the colour saturation could be reduced a bit. --AngMoKio 11:26, 6 September 2006 (UTC)
  •  Comment The photo was taken in RAW format and colour saturation could be reduced easily.--Johnson Lau 14:14, 6 September 2006 (UTC)
•  Oppose I like the composition, including the city behind. Unfortunately its only part of the statue. Gnangarra 12:09, 6 September 2006 (UTC)
  •  Comment Here is a photo showing the whole statue: Image:HK_Star_Bruce_Lee_16.jpg. The statue is fenced and I found impossible to take a full picture of it without being distracted.--Johnson Lau 14:05, 6 September 2006 (UTC)
    •  Comment I agree with Dschwen this other image shows it possible, are you able to retake the image? If so I'd suggest(based on full image) that by placing the statue further right in the frame you could remove sufficient quantities of the fence, it would also loose some of the value in the background but thats not the main subject anyway.

•  Oppose. Sorry, but the composition looks random. The statue is unnecessarily cut (your example above only shows me it is possible to get a better angle. --Dschwen 14:49, 6 September 2006 (UTC)
  •  CommentThe background is 2 charateristic buildings of HongKong. The Central Plaza [1] is the 2nd highest building in HK. The Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre [2] was the site of the handover ceremony. I didn't take the whole statue due to the ugly fence around it.--Johnson Lau 15:26, 6 September 2006 (UTC)
•  Oppose per the above, due to suboptimal composition. TheBernFiles 15:38, 9 September 2006 (UTC)
•  Oppose composition--Queryzo 14:21, 15 September 2006 (UTC)
•  Oppose due to composition, background, light, and cutting. Roger McLassus 15:42, 19 September 2006 (UTC)
•  Oppose as above --LadyofHats 22:41, 20 September 2006 (UTC)
