•  Oppose Took me some time to decide whether to vote on this or not. Thanks to Christian Ferrer anyway for the nomination. In no way I want to embarrass you by my vote, so please excuse. Being asked now to review my own work, I strongly feel obliged to apply the same standards I always measured others’ works with. High standards because I always thought that only the very best images, the top of the cream of the crop, deserves my support here. Given that, I do not think this picture really can pass my personal threshold. Well, I know the circumstances it was taken under. A handheld telephoto shot (not quite sharp) in dull weather, cropped to the main subject, rather hazy first, then having been strongly postprocessed to get any contrast into it. In my eyes the result is nice, doubtless of encyclopedian character, maybe QI, but does not really offer enough wow or originality to be FP. Then maybe it’s just me, knowing all this, so don’t feel biased by my vote. If the community considers this one to be featured, I will be happy with the star as well (though I think there are nicer candidates among my recent uploads). --Kreuzschnabel 16:10, 13 October 2015 (UTC)
•  Oppose, not trying to poop in our image, you already show up the issues, especially the dull weather, fog is favourable to highlight the main object, however this haze... the green area of the bottom, is also not good. Cheers :) -- RTA 17:32, 13 October 2015 (UTC)
•  Oppose I have no problem with the foreground, and if that were the only element of the picture I'd be !voting support as long as it was technically well-accomplished. However ... that villagescape in the background is a distraction, and worse, a distraction in exactly the wrong place. Daniel Case (talk) 18:20, 13 October 2015 (UTC)
•  Oppose Given the conditions, I think you did a really good job! Nevertheless, I'll have to agree with you about the wow. --El Grafo (talk) 11:26, 15 October 2015 (UTC)
