- Oppose - It is inevitable that any panorama of Toledo will be compared to this fantastic painting by El Greco. Your view of Toledo doesn't capture that magic. This one, although much smaller and certainly not perfect, IMO, does. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 08:38, 24 February 2018 (UTC)
- Comment I'd add this one to compare - Benh (talk) 09:15, 24 February 2018 (UTC)
- Benh's suggestion is much more interesting. I suspect there might have been a few new buildings since El Greco's 'fantasy' panorama! Charles (talk) 10:06, 24 February 2018 (UTC)
- Yes, but the photo of Toledo I linked to was taken only a few years ago, and in any case, the buildings El Greco painted and their location on a hill are still there. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 10:46, 24 February 2018 (UTC)
- Comment I'm not attracted to "effectively" processed images, they too distort reality, especially colors. For encyclopedias are more characteristic of the reflection of the real world. Photos in general cannot opposing to painting masterpieces, because their methods and technologies, and most importantly, the tasks, are too different. -- Ввласенко (talk) 10:35, 24 February 2018 (UTC)
- Two photos have been provided to you as comparisons. Not enough of the old city is in this photo, and the composition isn't compelling. And you think FPC in Commons is only about encyclopedias? I think that would be FPC in Wikipedia. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 10:46, 24 February 2018 (UTC)
- Unfortunately in my view Ikan Kekek is right. Commons FP is not at all about encyclopaedic value. Otherwise most of the FP candidates here would not make FP. Charles (talk) 19:42, 24 February 2018 (UTC)
- Oppose Quite nice, but a bit soft.--Peulle (talk) 21:35, 24 February 2018 (UTC)
- Oppose per Peulle. Daniel Case (talk) 17:40, 25 February 2018 (UTC)
- I withdraw my nomination I thank everyone who expressed his opinion. -- Ввласенко (talk) 09:25, 26 February 2018 (UTC)
