•  Oppose—no wow & looks a bit tilted.—Love, Kelvinsong talk 21:34, 23 June 2014 (UTC)
  • Kelvinsong Regarding the perceived tilt: I would claim there is no tilt, but since the perspective correction applied is rather extreme due to the severe limitations of space (see other version for the original uncorrected version) there are some minor second order effects left - more complicated than a simple barrel distortion which gives the geometry a hardly noticeable rubber-like appearance. I do not know if there is a way to correct that, but if so, it is beyond my editing capabilities. I, of course, accept you perceived lack of wow. --Slaunger (talk) 14:35, 24 June 2014 (UTC)

• Frankly I cannot understand how someone could look at that building and not go wow. Sure, argue the technicals but saying "no wow"? Sure, to each his own, but is there no common baseline? Saffron Blaze (talk) 15:49, 24 June 2014 (UTC)

• Kelvinsong There is no tilt, but the square and the street in front of the building are not flat and that changes perception. --Kadellar (talk) 17:08, 25 June 2014 (UTC)

•  Oppose I know this highrise in Madrid. It is very hard to make a good image of it because there is not enough space. Sadly the foreground is disturbing and the technical accomplishment is not so good too. --Wladyslaw (talk) 06:31, 24 June 2014 (UTC)
  • Wladyslaw, I can confirm it is difficult (for me at least with my gear). Saffron Blaze asked me about the technical quality of the photo on my talk page. I have copied my reply to the talk page of this nomination for information. --Slaunger (talk) 14:35, 24 June 2014 (UTC)
•  Comment The lighting looks rather flat, which is surprising given that it was taken during the golden hour. Perhaps the WB is too blue? --King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 00:56, 25 June 2014 (UTC)

  Thanks for your reviews. Has given valuable input for next time I visit Madrid :-) --Slaunger (talk) 22:10, 27 June 2014 (UTC)
