  • Oppose. I'm assuming this has been stitched as it's exhibiting fairly common distortion caused by cylindrical projection. Sometimes it's aesthetically pleasing but I'm not sure it is in this case... It makes the building look bulbous (not helped by the curved domes on top). I think a rectilinear projection would be more appropriate for this image. Ðiliff «» (Talk) 22:36, 27 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
