Brisbane by night[edit]

Brisbane city by night, looking north along the Brisbane River towards the CBD.

Reason: Not a bad picture but not exceptional either for such an often-photographed subject. I think we can do better.

Delist per above, not to mention the overexposure blowing the highlights. -Fcb981 23:57, 24 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delist Nice pic, but a tad too small. Jumping cheese ^Cont@ct 04:06, 25 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delist Too small and not particularly pleasing to my eye. -Wutschwlllm 19:25, 25 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Comment, so this one is worse than this one how? ~ trialsanderrors 09:47, 30 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- I'm not saying this is much worse than that one, but compare this image with this or some other images of the same subject at Flickr (example search). I think featured pictures should be exceptional in some way. --KFP (talk | contribs) 12:07, 30 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- In fact it's not really different and I voted for delisting on the one you mentioned too and I can't understand why anyone would want to keep it, but that's democracy (sometimes it sucks, but hey...). -Wutschwlllm 13:36, 30 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  - nope --⁪froth^T 21:55, 30 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    - Well, in fact, this is very close to democracy......and the "consensus" is executed a bit arbitrarily too (but that's just my opinion). -Wutschwlllm 20:19, 1 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- P.S.: The other one was kept because it "fits size requirements", which seems a bit arbitrary to me, especially since it looks like a panorama. -Wutschwlllm 13:39, 30 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  - Tells you something about the arbitrariness of size requirements. They're both ~50,000 pixels. Oh, and Delist. ~ trialsanderrors 19:07, 30 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    - That one wasn't about size. The oldest voters on FPC voted to keep it because it had a superior composition and atmosphere and the best of it's subject we have. --Arad 22:28, 31 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
