  •  Oppose Nice experiment but the building isn't an interesting enough subject IMO to warrant the colour/b&w treatment. My eye keeps getting drawn to the ugly grey patch in the middle of the wall (I know it is colour grey rather than desaturated grey but still ugly). Plus, the colour/b&w selection isn't very careful -- parts of the blue sky show through and parts of the building are still grey. I can understand retaining the sloping verticals of a skyscraper but less so a two-storey building. Colin (talk) 16:59, 18 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Oppose Per Colin. The editing is not very precise as it should be in a FP. The blue sky is visible near the flags and right side of the building. The are some yellow colour which are also gray in the building. Perspective should also be corected. -- JDP90 (talk) 17:49, 18 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
    •  Comment I don's see how the perspective is a problem. The sloping lines of the building, the coconut tree, the lamp post all converge towards a point in the sky and I guess that adds to the image. Not everyone shoots with a PC lens, nor every photo needs perspective correction. -- Dey.sandip (talk) 20:23, 18 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
This is only my humble opinion, yours could be different. I guess no one or very few here shoots with a PC lens but in my opinion this kind of photos do not need a perspective correction, it is intended for this. I think this perspective does not adds to your image. Again, this is only my humble opinion, yours could be different. -- JDP90 (talk) 03:35, 19 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
