  •  Oppose Sorry, there are notable technical flaws: although the image looks good in 800x516 view, you can see several unpleasant artefacts (JPEG compression artefacts??) in full resolution, just look e.g. at the facade of the castle, or at the spire where strange kind of halos all around are visible. Or have a look at the sky where it looks almost like upscaled because single pixels are visible as well (wtf?!). Also, similar artefacts and additionally some chromatic aberrations at the statue, and, finally, at the very right the image is tilted ccw (albeit this latter issue is correctible). All in all, it's a pity for the nice motive, but I wonder how could the image have become even a QI... - A.Savin 16:01, 14 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  •  I withdraw my nomination I took out the QI label but after some improvements (CA, artifacts, distortion, sharpness,...) I allowed myself to restore it. Please, let me know in my talk page if don't share my opinion. The nomination for FP is withdrawn. Poco a poco (talk) 17:01, 14 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
