- Oppose The picture is taken from an angle that makes the house seem somehow distorted, you don’t get a proper feeling of the volumes of the building. Yakikaki (talk) 21:11, 12 November 2020 (UTC)
- I had the same feeling, but I checked, and everything that should be vertical is. I think it's partly the effect of the mansard roof. —David Eppstein (talk) 04:14, 13 November 2020 (UTC)
- Comment. Good lighting and detail on an encyclopedic-enough building but at high resolution this is a bit soft for my taste. More importantly I find the cluttered background confusing. It's what's there in the scene and hard to do much around, but for instance it makes the skylight on the building look at first like a distant unrelated building on the hilltop behind it, and the same for the white trim on the left side of the roof. —David Eppstein (talk) 18:08, 13 November 2020 (UTC)
- It seems decent for 2013. My main issue is that I wish it wasn't such a tight crop. Weak support Adam Cuerden (talk)Has about 7.7% of all FPs 05:41, 14 November 2020 (UTC)
