Oppose No context about what we are looking at - for all we know this could be actually be looking down from some form of high up viewpoint... Not keen on such a close up picture - would be better taken further back so we can see more of the wall and also floor and ceiling in one shot... For evidence of how this should/could be done, see any of Diliff's pictures... gazhiley 11:49, 23 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Agree with above, I'm not sure what the photograph is showing, so the EV would be quite low. Mattximus (talk) 13:31, 23 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
There is a clear text under the photo in which we can see about what we are looking at, wall and ceiling. This picture is featuring cell and wall together and it is actually artistic. what do you exactly want me to explain about building? I thing your words are sort of split hairs.

- While I can't speak for the rest Alborzagros, my personal issue is that if I saw this on the front page I wouldn't know what it is without reading the description, and therefore there's no "wow" factor that is so often mentioned in this process... And again, it's a bit of an odd composition for the interior of a religious building - especially when you compare it (as I mentioned above) to other FPs of religious buildings... It doesn't attract me to want to look at the article because my brain can't immediately tell what it is, and therefore if it was on the front page of wiki I'd keep scrolling... Not gonna support something that I wouldn't look at if it was on the front page... gazhiley 10:30, 26 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
