- Weak oppose I honestly don't know what to say about it, its definitely not "crisp" but I want to support it because the lights have a beautiful effect on the water but overall its technical quality is lacking some --Childzy ¤ Talk 20:13, 16 August 2007 (UTC)
- Oppose. Noisy and not sharp. The starbursts from street lights should be crisp and well-defined; using a smaller aperture will help this. As for the noise, going down to ISO 80 may not help much, so you might either remove it in an editor (which could hurt the sharpness); short of that, you'd have to get an SLR with a larger sensor. Good exposure level, though. This is another one of those photos that looks great as a thumbnail, but has issues at full size. --Peter 03:29, 17 August 2007 (UTC)
- Oppose per Peter. Far from being "crisp". Cacophony 08:07, 17 August 2007 (UTC)

- Oppose, snapshot quality. --Dhartung | Talk 18:26, 19 August 2007 (UTC)
- Support personally I like the image, its lights are nice and I like how it reflects on the water.--Southern Texas 03:20, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
