•  Info A tremendous pic of the astronomical clock in the Torre dell'Orologio, a sixteenth-century tower in Brescia, Italy. This beautiful clock is a major landmark in the city and I think Moroder has captured it really well here - the sharpness at full-res for a 51mpx image is very impressive. Surely the best photo of this clock on the internet. created by Moroder - uploaded by Moroder - nominated by Cmao20 -- Cmao20 (talk) 23:13, 27 April 2020 (UTC)

•  Comment Is there a way to crop more on left and right? those areas are not symmetrical and are uninteresting (I'd almost say ugly). I also believe that a square crop would make the motif stronger --Poco a poco (talk) 19:44, 28 April 2020 (UTC)

  @Poco a poco: , I'll put up an alternative with a square crop, but it'll have to wait till tomorrow. Cmao20 (talk) 23:14, 28 April 2020 (UTC)

•  Question - Have you asked Moroder how he feels about your editing his photo? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 08:49, 29 April 2020 (UTC)

• I shouldn’t have thought that would be necessary merely for putting up an alternate crop. If I were editing and overwriting the original image, of course I would ask him, but that is a very different situation. A Commons license allows the production of derivative works as long as they are properly attributed to the creator - so there is no problem with uploading a different crop.

Alternative

•  Info A completely square crop isn't possible as the clock itself isn't square, but hopefully this is what you were thinking of Poco. Pinging everyone who has voted (either pro or anti) or commented so far: @Aristeas, XRay, Poco a poco, Ikan Kekek, Kallerna, Ermell, Fischer.H, and Agnes Monkelbaan: . Also @Moroder: to make sure you're OK with this. I think I have credited you properly in the alt version by using all the templates you used on the original photo. Brilliant photo btw :) Cmao20 (talk) 14:18, 29 April 2020 (UTC)

•  Support IMO OK too --XRay ^talk 14:23, 29 April 2020 (UTC)
•  Support Personally, I would just crop a bit at the right of the original version to get symmetry, but this version is OK, too ;–). --Aristeas (talk) 18:29, 29 April 2020 (UTC)

•  Oppose To make things clear, sorry: I prefer the other version. --Aristeas (talk) 07:01, 6 May 2020 (UTC)
