Weak Support Perspective issues in the bottom corners, and the highlights are a tad blown - mainly on the front-and-centre flowers and a few of the hanging stars. However, not enough for me to Oppose.

The flower are clearly not blown out. Have you tried inspecting their pixel values? As for the lights, making them any darker would make the image look unnatural since they are supposed to be quite bright and the primary source of illumination. For reference, here are the three exposures I used to generate this:
-2 EV,
0 EV,
+2 EV.

They are almost blinding sorry - no detail on a lot of the leaves. In comparison to all the other flower beds they are positively glowing as if a huge light is shining directly on them... The ones at the front I don't know exactly what colour but I assume a creamy colour?

I've recovered the details in the flowers. Do you mind taking another look? And yes, there are indeed several little spotlights shining on them, which you can see on the roof. Do note that you have to refresh a few times (or add ?action=purge or at the end of the URL) in order to see the changes, as mediawiki tends to cache pictures for a while. Thanks again!

By the way, what do you mean by "perspective issues"? I see no perspective distortion issues -- that is, all architectural vertical lines are vertical in the photo. If you mean that the corners appear stretched, it is because this lens is an (almost) perfect
rectilinear lens which has the side effect of stretching corners for super wide fields of view. But, because it is the only type of lens to preserve straight lines, it is undisputedly considered the best type of lens for architecture photography (as opposed to fisheye lenses, which have lots of barrel distortion).

Yes I mean in the corners - but it's not enough to affect my vote, the lighting was the main issue for me, and that's sorted now...
