•  Support I actually do like the minimalist composition, the light and dramatic sky and the pattern on the building. Hope for you I won't be alone ;) - Benh (talk) 11:59, 7 January 2012 (UTC)

•  Support This is an example of something ordinary but can be seen as beauty. There are a lot of beautiful things around us but we usually can't see them.Trongphu (talk) 22:38, 7 January 2012 (UTC)

•  Comment Too strong useless shadow in foreground, needs a crop IMO.--Jebulon (talk) 15:39, 9 January 2012 (UTC)

I uploaded a cropped version, just to see what it looks like; however, IMHO, the grey shadow in the foreground isn't totally useless, since it's symmetric with the grey sky above. I believe the balance and composition of the first version is better, but I'd like to know what you think :-) --M.L.Watts_{Air Mail ✈} 17:56, 9 January 2012 (UTC)

•  Oppose I am not convinced about the crop. --Yikrazuul (talk) 18:03, 9 January 2012 (UTC)
•  Oppose - crop too tight on the left. I'd suggest cropping more from the foreground per Michael as well. --Claritas (talk) 19:25, 9 January 2012 (UTC)

•  Oppose I dislike the sky, the crop, and the distracting shadow on the foreground. --Paolo Costa (talk) 13:00, 12 January 2012 (UTC)
•  Oppose -- I am not really convinced, bad crop I'm afraid. TrebleSeven (talk) 16:01, 12 January 2012 (UTC)

•  Oppose Per others--Miguel Bugallo 21:37, 13 January 2012 (UTC)
•  Support The foreground seems necessary to provide space around the subject. Side-to-side I imagine it would work fine wider... however, this emphasizes the verticals, including the painted "columns". Since the painting is the most unusual part of the architecture, I think the crop helps focus the viewer's attention. --99of9 (talk) 09:13, 14 January 2012 (UTC)
•  Oppose -- I like minimal compositions. But this one has two disturbing elements: the lack of verticality on the left and the shadow in the foreground. Alvesgaspar (talk) 10:14, 14 January 2012 (UTC)
