Oppose In my view, too dark, back light does not work here. Sorry. HalfGig talk 21:10, 5 January 2018 (UTC)
- The statue is dark, but the statue's border is bright. That why this picture is beautiful IMO.--Paris 16 (talk) 01:53, 6 January 2018 (UTC)
- Support - I expect HalfGig's view to carry the day, but I find this picture beautiful and find that the sculpture is quite bright enough to view and is emphasized by the bright facade (I believe of the Louvre) in the background, in much the same way that a subito piano passage surrounded by louder music is emphasized in a special way. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 21:43, 5 January 2018 (UTC)
Comment It doesn't help that the statue is sort of cut in half from the right shoulder to the left foot by the top of the hedge row. I'll have to think on this one. PumpkinSky talk 00:21, 6 January 2018 (UTC)- Oppose Composition is too busy and IMO the main subject should be illuminated much better (e.g. using an off-camera flash). Here the background is brighter than the foreground which doesn't really work (as long as you don't have a contre-jour-composition which is not the case here). --Code (talk) 07:49, 6 January 2018 (UTC)
- Oppose Background too distracting. Daniel Case (talk) 17:12, 6 January 2018 (UTC)
