  • Weak support - I like the idea, and I know it can't be avoided, but I'm having trouble with the serious motion blur on the boat. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 12:31, 21 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak Oppose. In addition to what Crisco mentioned, its's a visually stimulating image, but I find the composition quite messy and confusing. Not many of the Parisian landmarks actually seem to be well shown. Ðiliff «» (Talk) 20:03, 21 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose Once again, darkness is the devil here : motion blur on the boats (both the the right of the bridge, and the one under the second arch from the right); lack of detail around the banking behind the "700 Pont Au Change" sign; The main bridge itself is too dark to see what it is made from. All minor issues, but all together makes me oppose. Nice enough picture, but the lack of light results in a few issues - would love to see this taken during the day. gazhiley 11:04, 22 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support, but then I shamelessly like atmospheric photos. I think it is the light that keeps the composition and everything together, and the details are rather clear, -well, with the exception of the a boat. Here it is the cars who move. Doesn't this has to do with the length of exposure in night pics? Hafspajen (talk) 05:28, 23 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose The cluttered composition (of what's a rather formal and fairly uncluttered cityscape) greatly reduces any EV here. It's a pretty picture, but not much use for illustrating articles IMO. Nick-D (talk) 23:27, 24 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose - There are contrast issues in this picture --DUCK404 a (talk) 01:51, 31 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose composition is poor, such as with the building on the right suddenly cut off -- mcshadypl TC 20:57, 31 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
