Original - The Seine as seen from the Pont Royal. The Musée d'Orsay is visible in the left foreground and the Grand Palais is in the right background.
Reason
This is an
HDR photo I took of the Seine, whilst trying out the new technique. I like this image for the encyclopedia because it shows the Seine's prominence in Paris, the
Musée d'Orsay on the left, the
Grand Palais to the right, and in the far background, the
Pont Alexandre III, it also shows one of the tourboats moving down the river--a common view for city visitors. The image is of sufficient resolution (1000px width), was given to the public domain, and is applicable to the
Seine article.
Weak oppose because it's just too dark for my tastes, but that's just me. it'd be nice if the sky was a bit lighter, less dark purple. But again, that's just me.

Ya, I hear you. I thought about that during processing, but opted to go for the contrast. I wanted the sunbeam to stand out.

Oppose - barely hits resolution requirements (which are minimum reasonable) and the HDR is overdone. Too in-your-face and showing off, more of an artistic technique than getting more information in the image. Too arty, less encyclopaedic. —

Oppose. Way too much HDR, very unrealistic.
