  •  Comment The verticals and the ground level (e.g. doorstep) are square; the lintel line is not horizontal because of perspective. I can square up the horizontal perspective if people feel that's needed, but it would then lose the identifying sign on the building. The shadows are integral to the bright sunshine - and the most important part is the people and the moment. --Dcrjsr (talk) 19:39, 8 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for nominating this image. Unfortunately, it does not fall within the Guidelines and is unlikely to succeed for the following reason: of too harsh lighting, too busy composition and main subject (the people) not clearly depicted. -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 11:37, 9 July 2010 (UTC)[reply] Anyone other than the nominator who disagrees may override this template by changing {{FPX}} to {{FPX contested}} and adding a vote in support. Voting will then continue in the usual way. If not contested within 24 hours, this nomination may be closed.
