•  Support Excellent image. -- Johann Jaritz (talk) 08:23, 8 September 2018 (UTC)
•  Neutral I won't oppose. The composition is really wonderful. A great photograph. But the technical quality is low. Sorry. --XRay ^talk 12:34, 8 September 2018 (UTC)
•  Support I don't think the quality is that bad for a night shot, and anyhow the wow factor weighs up for it.--Peulle (talk) 18:00, 8 September 2018 (UTC)
•  Support wow Christian Ferrer ^(talk) 18:55, 8 September 2018 (UTC)
•  Support --Tozina (talk) 20:37, 8 September 2018 (UTC)
•  Support A strong wow, but unfortunately quality is not superior --Michielverbeek (talk) 22:36, 8 September 2018 (UTC)
•  Support –Juliancolton | ^Talk 00:31, 9 September 2018 (UTC)
•  Weak support Quite noisy and strong vignetting, night shot at 800 ISO probably hand held camera. Still support because it's really special (subject, light, sky), but I agree with XRay and Michielverbeek -- Basile Morin (talk) 01:07, 9 September 2018 (UTC)
•  Oppose for noise. We've had examples of other shots like this done better. Daniel Case (talk) 04:08, 9 September 2018 (UTC)

•  Question - I'm not finding any FPs, QIs or VIs in this category, so could you please give an example? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 09:37, 9 September 2018 (UTC)

@Ikan Kekek: This one's a lot less noisy. Daniel Case (talk) 04:07, 10 September 2018 (UTC)

•  Support - Thanks. Yes it is, but it's of a different subject. This composition is very good and pretty, and I think that as a historical picture, it's good enough to merit a feature. The bottom right corner is the most troubling area, but it's of relatively minor importance, overall. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 07:54, 11 September 2018 (UTC)

•  Support --Yann (talk) 05:02, 10 September 2018 (UTC)
•  Support -- George Chernilevsky ^talk 05:54, 11 September 2018 (UTC)
•  Comment Not sure hand held (freehand) or not, and no need for freehand and ISO800. IMHO. --Laitche (talk) 07:53, 11 September 2018 (UTC)
•  Support --Myroslav Vydrak (talk) 06:25, 12 September 2018 (UTC)
