- Oppose Daytime view is more encyclopaedic. Charlesjsharp (talk) 20:31, 13 May 2023 (UTC)
- There are about three dozen FPs of illuminated buildings at night, dawn, or dusk in the Architecture gallery. UnpetitproleX (talk) 06:01, 14 May 2023 (UTC)
- Agree with Charles. Nighttime reflective building images generally strike me as gimmicky. -- Sca (talk) 14:29, 14 May 2023 (UTC)
- @Charlesjsharp, UnpetitproleX, and Sca: My thought is that they can make an otherwise kind of standard building look nicer, "edit out" ugly or distracting context, and draw eyes to the building. But the lead image of the article, while not perfect in any way, shows that there's a perfectly good background available during the day, indeed, a whole complex around it that appears to be a very intentional complex and thus encyclopedic. Adam Cuerden (talk)Has about 8.4% of all FPs. 16:56, 19 May 2023 (UTC)

- Oppose – The blacks are too black and underexposed. Exposure bracketing or a brighter time in the evening would be a big improvement. Bammesk (talk) 15:46, 20 May 2023 (UTC)
