•  Oppose sorry, but for me: too distorted bottom side. --Alchemist-hp (talk) 07:51, 12 February 2015 (UTC)

I'm living in Vilnius and this chapel is quite small and has narrow entrance. Taking it from the entrance (center) would make these side (and especially ceiling) decorations invisible and lower "WOW effect". That sarcophagus in the center is with the remains of Saint Casimir. The chapel has two paintings. Left-side painting shows scene when he returned to Vilnius in coffin after his death after some time. When people opened the coffin, they saw that his body is completely not disintegrated (one of his miracles). Right-one (pictured here) is somehow related with his ability to cure people (don't remember the whole story, but it is his another miracle). In my opinion, coffin and at least one of these paintings should both be visible in FP of this place. Picturing it from the chapel's angle is the best solution to capture both of them in one photo. Actually there is no other solution... Furthermore, this picture has brilliant lighting. At times it is quite dark here (depends on the weather outside). -- Pofka (talk) 14:50, 12 February 2015 (UTC)

•  Support Not distorted in my opinion. Just what you get with using rectilinear at such wide angle. The stretching is still reasonable for me. - Benh (talk) 22:49, 12 February 2015 (UTC)
•  Support Precious, the apparent distortion is somewhat important aspect in the image at full resolution and it is inevitable at this distance, would be less evident only the photo was taken from a scaffold 3 m from the floor. ; ) -- Lauro Sirgado^contribs 14:31, 13 February 2015 (UTC)
