Oppose Tilted; and more detail (higher rez or more direct composition) on the minaret would also help.--

Oppose Nice shot, but unfortunately it could serve as an example of how not to shoot for the encyclopedia. Whatever the image, subject illustration is of paramount importance. However cool, arty angles confuse, rather than clarify. The tree on the left obscures important detail unnecessarily and this all conspires against a sense of scale. Most of the points in support, while undoubtedly true, aren't relevant for FP nomination purposes.

Except for #9, all of the bullets describe the subject. Finding a featured subject isn't hard; finding a featured picture is.--

Oppose Does not illustrate subject matter adequately, off center. But still good when used with other photographs I guess.

Oppose As per HereToHelp. No question on enc. value, but the subject is off centre and the angle is disconcerting rather than helpful.Pedro |

Oppose Think to yourself what is the subject of the photograph; the trees, the fluffy clouds or the minaret? Which is it illustrating? I know for a fact that it is the minaret, but this is only because I read the description. I feel that the main downside to this shot is that the other elements (the elements apart from the minaret that is to say) are distracting and thus degrading its encyclopaedic value.
