- Comment: Nice quality, but I'm not sure if I like the cathedral being off-centre. Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:38, 10 September 2011 (UTC)
- Support Nice dynamic composition showing the cathedral in its current urban context. --Elekhh (talk) 01:01, 11 September 2011 (UTC)
- Question Why'd you choose to nominate this one over File:Moscow July 2011-7a.jpg? JJ Harrison (talk) 07:35, 11 September 2011 (UTC)
- Answer - Because I like the composition more and it puts the subject in context, as Elekhh said. Alvesgaspar (talk) 14:24, 11 September 2011 (UTC)
- 'Comment' I'd support the file specified by User:JJ Harrison. Way higher EV. This image is a pretty one and might definitely win a competition, but in terms of EV, I think it looses out a little. Hariya1234 (talk) 07:48, 11 September 2011 (UTC)
- Comment: I'd go for the one indicated by JJ. The image is used in the article regarding the church, so a view of the church should be paramount. A good view of the facade with a wider field of view would be even better, but don't think we have one. Crisco 1492 (talk) 08:42, 11 September 2011 (UTC)
- Support ALT1. High EV, high quality. Crisco 1492 (talk) 10:28, 11 September 2011 (UTC)
- I think I'll Support Alt1 because I happen to agree with User:JJ Harrison. Pteronura brasiliensis (talk) 13:54, 11 September 2011 (UTC)
- Support both versions. Pinetalk 08:07, 12 September 2011 (UTC)
- Support either Alt is probably slightly underexposed. JJ Harrison (talk) 09:20, 13 September 2011 (UTC)
- Weak Support alt only the first shows the bridge, and doesn't expand the EV further. I remember to nominate File:Moscow - Cathedral of Christ the Saviour.jpg before, but it failed. I agree that this is much better, but it is a little bit too dark; for example I can badly see the images on the round archs, as there is shadow on the top of them. Even the lightning on the first image is better. Also I think it is a little bit crooked, but I am not sure. — Preceding unsigned comment added by GreatOrangePumpkin (talk • contribs) 13 September 2011
- Support Either, but I prefer the original. The alt leads me to think that the bridge is a road, which is quite misleading pictorially. Just MHO. SMasters (talk) 08:32, 15 September 2011 (UTC)
- Support alt only -- George Chernilevsky talk 20:10, 17 September 2011 (UTC)
