•  Support very kühl indeed. The difference in sharpness between the fore- and background adds to the effect. --Lumijaguaari (моє обговорення) 09:31, 23 February 2006 (UTC)
•  Neutral The lack of sharpness in the background is acceptable, but the planes could be sharper. Nevertheless a good picture. Calderwood 13:13, 23 February 2006 (UTC)

•  Oppose Staged photo-op for making weaponry look poetic. I approved the SR-71 because the photo was nice and all, but this one... David.Monniaux 10:34, 26 February 2006 (UTC)

•  Oppose Too many details in the background, planes too small. This photo pretends to try to show both F16 and New york, and ends up showing nothing well. What it really tries to do is induce a nation of grandeur and "patriotism" by a gross propaganda setting (as per David.Monniaux (though I did not approve of the SR-71 either. We have far better photos of the SR-71 than the grossly deformed propaganda poster which eventually was featured)). Rama 09:47, 27 February 2006 (UTC)
•  Oppose - as per Rama - MPF 16:08, 27 February 2006 (UTC)
•  Oppose I don't care about patriotism or not, but the quality of this picture is not convincing. Hein 15:59, 28 February 2006 (UTC)
•  Support - I don't care about any perceived message, the photo is interesting (much more so than the many sunset photos we have featured). -Quasipalm 22:47, 1 March 2006 (UTC)

  Just a comment: I really don't give a damn whether an image is propaganda or not, as long as it is well done. I think that this one is only propaganda, that's all. Rama 13:20, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
