Delist - This is a horrible London panorama. The sky is overexposed, it was taken out of a glossy window, and there are numerous stitching mistakes. The panorama isn't even widely used on notable Wikipedia pages. --

This was promoted long long ago, before the advent of voting (I don't know exactly what happened back then, maybe it was just one user's opinion). There was a delist nomination in
July 2004 which garnered no comments, so I guess it never got delisted. Considering it's missing from
WP:FP and
WP:FPV it might actually have been delisted, but there's no record either way. I didn't notice how bad it was until I was adding {{picture of the day}} to the old POTDs (this one was back in June 2004). howcheng {

Delist I did not even know it was featured. At the time I uploaded it there was not much London-Fotos in Wikipedia, so I just thought it would be nice for people to see how it looks like from above. But it was just a snapshot ;-)

Comment -- One reason (among others) why this panorama contains stitching errors is because the viewpoint is not stationary, and cannot be. The passenger capsules on the London Eye are in constant motion, albeit at a slow rate. Thus any panorama made from separately captured images will necessarily have regions of discontinuity, because the camera's nodal point isn't fixed across the component images. Specialized equipment should be used to take a single-shot panorama of this angle. --
