  • Oppose - definitely useful and above-average, but I'm not convinced the square composition is ideal here, and even then there's an awful lot of dead space in the foreground. I think a 2:3 horizontal frame at a longer focal length with the building itself more prominent would work better (or something along those lines). Beautiful place, though, by the looks of it! – Juliancolton | Talk 05:34, 18 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Would a better crop help?Crop applied as the square format is not appropriate. It may simply not work as a FP...-Godot13 (talk) 05:40, 18 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • The building certainly has its possibilities, but most architecture FPs focus on the building itself. Getting a hundred metres or so closer would probably have presented more possibilities. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 13:58, 18 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
