Zaragoza[edit]

Came across this and, apart from the little speck in the river, seems like a perfectly beautiful image. Portrays both the enormous basilica of El Pilar, and the river.

Comment: Beautiful composition IMO. Do you have a higher resolution version? It would be nice if one could see more details of the basilica. Good job capturing the sunset sky without underexposing the buildings. -Tokugawapants 20:10, 27 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- I did not make this, so I cannot have a higher resolution version. --Golbez 21:08, 27 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. The sky is okay, but the Basilica is unsatisfying due to a lack of detail and the scaffolding surrounding the tower on the right. The bushes on the left detract from the composition. Also, the image is dominated by greys, and the file is unsharp (not out of focus). Overall a nice image, but not up to FP standards, IMO. -- moondigger 20:22, 27 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: A better quality pic would be better, but to be honest it nees to show more of the Basilica. Also the spec in water needs photoshopping out then maybe id give it a support.--Childzy ^{(Talk|Contribs)} 20:38, 27 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. I was in two minds but decided to oppose. A nice picture, but not a featured one. Either it is a wide view on the basilica, bridge and surroundings, but then it should be broader and bigger. Or it focuses more on either the basilica or the bridge, but then I'd like to zoom in. This is a kind of way in between which doesn't really satisfy. When I saw the thumbnail I expected a bigger shot. — Vildricianus 21:52, 27 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose While it is a beautiful scene, I don't feel that it is appropriate for an encyclopedia. Is the focus on the basilica or dusk? Would not the same picture taken at noon reveal more of the basilica? I think consideration about the purpose of the picture is necessary. Sudachi 08:15, 28 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose a nice photograph but doesn't really pass my FP criteria. Anonymous__Anonymous 09:59, 29 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Impresive picture, but i dont see its encyclopedic value. LadyofHats 17:01, 29 June 2006 (UTC).[reply]
