- Reason
- A photo of Southampton container docks showing them lit up for 24 hour operation. Since there are no ships in port (not that common) you can clearly see the full extent of the cranes and other dockside equipment. It also shows the entire dock in a single image. Decent size, decent clarity. It hasn't been in the article for a week but it replaced one of my own images.

- Oppose -- Overly dark; a day time shot would have been even better. Admittedly rare, but not exactly FP quality. Crisco 1492 (talk) 06:54, 19 December 2011 (UTC)
- I've got a daytime photo File:Southampton container port daylight.JPG but I find it rather boring.©Geni 20:10, 20 December 2011 (UTC)
- Weak support Kinda like the lights and stuff. Pictures at night are always pretty cool, I don't see where it has much encyclopedic value though. Dusty777 (talk) 16:47, 19 December 2011 (UTC)
- Weak support My opinion is a mixture of the above – It is a really nice photo, but a daytime shot may fit this scene better. Additionally, it doesn't have much Encyclopedia value, per Dusty777. – TropicalAnalystwx13 (talk) 02:13, 20 December 2011 (UTC)
- Oppose. Don't really see the value of an empty dock, particularly when it's difficult to see much detail at night. Composition isn't really outstanding either, there's a lot of empty space at the top and bottom of the frame and it would probably benefit from a more panoramic aspect ratio.
