  • Speedy close Sorry, but minimum resolution is 1500 width and height. -- King of 05:59, 25 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Speedy close I have to agree with King of Hearts, if it was a 4:3 image with one side above 1500px and one side below (such as in 1600x1200) then I'd be happy to defend it against the hardliners who insist on 1500x1500 or greater but at least one side has to be large enough or there just isn't enough flexibility to use the image in an article, on the front page, or elsewhere where it may need to be resized to various sizes or seen full size.

  • Oppose/Speedy close etc. Sorry, but poor composition (too much water resulting in unbalanced view with tightly cropped London Eye) and it's such a common view. The one thing this photo has going for it is a nice dusk glow on the horizon. In any case, it doesn't exist in the article anymore which makes it ineligible.
