•  Oppose Tilted, quite hefty barrel distortion and I'm not sure if that's the best B/W conversion. All of which are correctable --MichaD | Michael Apel 14:52, 22 June 2007 (UTC)
  •  Info I also had the impression of a tilted horizon but photoshop ruler doesn't seem to agree. Which specific criticism do you have about B/W? The conversion was made with an aesthetic point of view, hence the high contrast. Nattfodd 17:29, 27 June 2007 (UTC)
  •  Comment First let me say that I can't really put hard facts down for the B&W conversion and I'm also not really an expert at this. That's why I say I've got the impression it could be better. What I like about good B&W photos is a fine tone graduation. This can even be the case while being very contrasty. I think this conversion certainly lacks that, especially on the facade. The impression of the tilt is probably a combination from the off-center composition and the barrel distortion. Again I like the photo, that freeze frame look, and I would support it with the barrel distortion corrected and maybe a different B&W conversion --MichaD | Michael Apel 20:59, 29 June 2007 (UTC)

•  Support Beautiful Sosomk 20:01, 23 June 2007 (UTC)
•  Oppose Agree with MichaD and additional it looks slightly overexposed --Simonizer 12:15, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

•  Oppose see: MichaD. No reason for B/W. --Jeses 19:11, 26 June 2007 (UTC)
  •  Info I don't quite see what would be a "reason" for B/W. I think it makes it look better and goes much better with the pigeons flock. Nattfodd 17:29, 27 June 2007 (UTC)
•  Oppose ack MichaD. --Digon3 ^talk 16:00, 27 June 2007 (UTC)

•  Oppose --Bergwolf 20:23, 27 June 2007 (UTC)

Please say why. --MichaelMaggs 13:29, 29 June 2007 (UTC)

•  Oppose due to correctable tilt and some relatively minor distortion. The writing on one of the banners looks aliased or oversharpened to me. The black and white is fine here. -- Ram-Man 17:28, 29 June 2007 (UTC)
