Wikipedia:Valued picture candidates/Archaic view of BP Pedestrian Bridge

Reason: The EV of this image is due to its archaic nature. The Chicago skyline photography is defined by three locations. The most classic photography of it comes from the Adler Planetarium (See Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/Chicago skyline at sunrise‎ where several examples exist) and from observation decks at Willis Tower and Hancock Center. As WP:CHICAGO director who stumbles across a lot of Chicago photography, these are the three iconic views of the city's architecture. This particular 2007 view no longer exists (see File:WillisTowerPanorama01.jpg which shows how Legacy Tower impedes the view). Although the Willoughby Tower seems to impede the view of the rest of Millennium Park, it serves as a reminder that this is a view from within one of the world's most phenomenal skylines. Its highest EV uses a cropped version of this image. Since Willoughby Tower predates the Bridge by several decades, the view was never unimpeded. This article recently failed at Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/Archaic view of BP Pedestrian Bridge.

Oppose An image that's not even used in the first article you link to, BP Pedestrian Bridge, is hardly enough EV for the subject in addition it's buried down in Millennium Park so it's clearly not the best illustrative example for that either. — raeky ^{(talk | edits)} 00:38, 13 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Composition is rather disorienting: the tower is kind of cutting the image in two parts, its long shadow is distracting, and the roofscape in the foreground is cropped haphazardly. --Elekhh (talk) 00:55, 15 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
