  • Oppose. Blurred, looks like a slight motion blur; while the main writing is quite clear all the finer details are blurry. Also composition not quite there - more careful framing would have included the top of the arch at the expense of some of the roadway. I will say though that this place probably looks better at night and mix of the current featured version and a good night shot might do well. --jjron (talk) 13:37, 16 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
