Support -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 09:45, 20 October 2013 (UTC)- Support Very good composition, showing two different parts of the city nicely in the same picture. The difference in brightness between them adds to the composition imo. --Kadellar (talk) 10:29, 20 October 2013 (UTC)
Question It's a very nice view. As already pointed out by Kadellar the combination of old and new is well done here. Just a question: When I look on the photo the large white house at the very left is quite remarkable. Does it belong to the "Painted Ladies"? If not I would think about an alternative crop (see note) because it distracts from the real stars here - the Painted Ladies. BTW: At the very right there is an area which a a bit unsharp, but not that crucial. --Tuxyso (talk) 10:57, 20 October 2013 (UTC)
- In this classic view, the Painted Ladies are not the only stars - this also happens to be one of the best views of the San Francisco skyline. My purpose for the wide panorama is to include a broad view of the skyline. --King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 17:50, 20 October 2013 (UTC)
- Then I would suggest to modify the filename and decription to something like "Painted Ladies with skyline of San Francisco..." --18:58, 20 October 2013 (UTC)

Comment I'm not sure about this. I do like the contrast and lighting though agree the left of the image isn't as strong as the right. But cropping no longer has the panoramic background. I find the red car on the right very distracting in this photo (less so in the other version). I wonder if you would consider trying to clone it out or changing its colour (e.g., brown) -- it isn't technically part of the scene so I don't think doing so would be dishonest, especially if you covered it in the image description notes. -- Colin (talk) 16:07, 20 October 2013 (UTC)
- It's too large to clone out, so I have desaturated it. Yeah, it's not really possible to include the entire skyline background behind the Painted Ladies; Alamo Square is on a hill, so if you try to walk closer to make the Painted Ladies seem bigger, the skyline disappears below the houses. I went with the best composition I could find. --King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 18:00, 20 October 2013 (UTC)
