Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/Star Ferry and the IFCs
The photograph features the facinating night view of the Victoria Harbour of Hong Kong in two layers, with Tsim Sha Tsui, Kowloon Peninsula in the foreground, the Central, Hong Kong Island (the opposite side of the harbour) in the background. In the foreground is a Star Ferry, one of the oldest cross-habour transportation in Hong Kong, parking at the pier. In the backround are the International Finance Centres (the taller "2 ifc" on the left and the shorter "1 ifc" on the right), which was constructed in recent years. The foreground and the background create a strong contrast between the old and the new in Hong Kong. This photograph was taken by Alan Mak, the nominator, in December 2005, and appears in the articles Star Ferry, International Finance Centre and Tsim Sha Tsui.

- Oppose - the ferry is too head on and the boxy structures on the left ugly so not FP material in my opinion - Adrian Pingstone 16:33, 14 January 2006 (UTC)
- Oppose - Agree with Adrian Pingstone. Alr 20:33, 14 January 2006 (UTC)
- Oppose. Unbalanced, not great composition. Zafiroblue05 21:44, 14 January 2006 (UTC)
- Oppose. I was just in HK not long ago, and I absolutely love the harbour (beats Sydney anyday). But this photo just doesn't do it justice. enochlau (talk) 06:38, 15 January 2006 (UTC)
- Oppose The boat, as said previously, is too head on, and the shed on the left really bugs me. --Ali K 13:23, 15 January 2006 (UTC)
- Oppose. Small, at this size it should be perfectly clear, but it isn't. Also the fileformat. PNG? On the plus side, I think it captures the mood ok (has been a few years since I went). --Dschwen 14:27, 16 January 2006 (UTC)
- Strongly Oppose Nothing eye-catching about this. -- Rohit 04:08, 24 January 2006 (UTC)
