- Support Thanks for the nom. I'm going to support that one. It has its issues, but I think it conveys the atmosphere of this incredible place well. I wish I had chosen a different
exposure timeshutter speed though. - Benh (talk) 14:58, 2 November 2022 (UTC)
- shutter speed thanks Martin Falbisoner (and for the very nice comment as well) - Benh (talk) 08:33, 4 November 2022 (UTC)

- Oppose Unconventional. Composition (perspective, motion blur) isn't working in my eyes. --Milseburg (talk) 15:18, 3 November 2022 (UTC)
- Support outstanding, really. A photo I wish I had taken. Love it. Angle and shutter speed are well chosen and convey a feeling of total immersion into that amazing location. --Martin Falbisoner (talk) 07:54, 4 November 2022 (UTC)
- Support --Wieggy (talk) 11:26, 4 November 2022 (UTC)
- Support per Martin. -- Radomianin (talk) 12:18, 4 November 2022 (UTC)
- Oppose The perspective. The blurring is not the problem for me. Charlesjsharp (talk) 12:23, 4 November 2022 (UTC)
- Oppose Per Milseburg and Charlesjsharp about the perspective. --Sebring12Hrs (talk) 12:38, 4 November 2022 (UTC)
- Support Beautiful, it took me straight back to the Shibuya crossing! Motion blur and uncorrected perspective can and should be used, as long as they serve a purpose. Here, the former adds motion and the latter conveys a sense of scale --Julesvernex2 (talk) 16:28, 4 November 2022 (UTC)
- Support Had to look at this several times to decide, but the atmosphere comes across strongly, probably for the reasons Julesvernex2 is mentioning and that atmosphere makes it special for me. --Kritzolina (talk) 17:48, 4 November 2022 (UTC)
- Support This is something that could appear on a magazine cover. We don't have to adhere so strictly to our conventional "rules" as long as the end result works. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 17:55, 4 November 2022 (UTC)
- Support per Julesvernex2. --Aristeas (talk) 20:32, 4 November 2022 (UTC)
- Support--Ermell (talk) 23:07, 4 November 2022 (UTC)
- Support Blurr helps to provide anonymity to all the people on the photo and gives the sense of movement :) Kruusamägi (talk) 22:29, 5 November 2022 (UTC)
- Support Cmao20 (talk) 14:26, 6 November 2022 (UTC)
- Oppose per all other opposers --Uoaei1 (talk) 18:32, 7 November 2022 (UTC)
- Regretful oppose due to perspective issues. Daniel Case (talk) 03:52, 8 November 2022 (UTC)
- Comment out of curiosity: where's the issue? The viewer might be looking up - in awe. --Martin Falbisoner (talk) 07:56, 8 November 2022 (UTC)
- I will second that. In many architectural pictures, one wants vertical lines, and this is all but an architectural subject. It's fine not to like it, but allow me to point to that old failed nom of mine which IMO shows how sticking to vertical can yield unfortunate (ridiculous?) effects sometimes. Finally, I think photography is much more fun when we don't constrain ourselves too much with conventions, even though they are good guidelines to keep in mind. - Benh (talk) 23:31, 8 November 2022 (UTC)
