Oppose The image seem slightly tilted, the streaks on the floor add nothing to the photo, and the thing in the back seems out of focus. Spencer^T♦^C 01:25, 16 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Support Very nice, though cut off from all sides.--HereToHelp ^{(talk to me)} 01:29, 16 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Support Very nice photo, great color,very sharp, and the sun streaks on the floor aren't a distraction. Clegs (talk) 20:18, 16 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Support The image looks tilted, but as far as I can tell it isn't to any significant degree. Maybe the slanted bright areas on the floor create an illusion. This looks like it would have been hell to try to get proper DOF. Great job. Matt Deres (talk) 00:23, 17 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Support eye catching, sharp, will fit perfectly for the encyclopedia, M.K. (talk) 10:49, 21 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Support I think it is slightly tilted, and I suspect the streaks accentuate that. But that is not enough to detract from a fine shot that illustrates the article well and lifts it - swap it with the staircase shot. Motmit (talk) 20:11, 21 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
