    • Sloppy sloppy work Diliff... Coulda at least got that sorted first... Next you'll be telling us you couldn't be bothered to rearrange the clouds to frame it better...  ;-) hehe Gazhiley (talk) 15:26, 11 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
      • Apologies for my insolence. For the record, I think it was probably an electric wheelchair that caused the lines. Those things were everywhere the day I visited. As per the other nomination of the Admiralty Building, it took patience to avoid too many people in shot. I waited until the moment that everyone moved out of the frame, but gave up waiting for those sitting down to move - they were going nowhere fast. :-) Ðiliff «» (Talk) 21:15, 11 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
        • For what it's worth, I think this image is greatly improved by having a few people in it; after all, it is a tourist attraction. The symmetry of the building is nicely reflected by the two groups of people, especially since the woman on the left and the man on the right mirror each other's posture. Plus you've really caught the 'decisive moment' with the man on the right :) NotFromUtrecht (talk) 08:27, 12 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
          • You're right, I was more concerned with random stragglers walking across the grass/along the path. By the way, there are worse places to be from than Utrecht - no need to be so defensive! ;-) Ðiliff «» (Talk) 10:39, 12 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support: fantastic. I'm assuming the odd distorted appearance of the two people sitting under the furthest-left umbrella is because they're showing through a gap in the hedge, not because of a stitching error? NotFromUtrecht (talk) 09:17, 11 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
    • Yes, it's just because they're behind the hedge. It does look a bit bizarre, but I confirmed that the original RAW files are the same. Ðiliff «» (Talk) 10:38, 11 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
