Oppose Wow... Not seen such a noisy picture before! It's almost un-viewable at full zoom... There's wierd multicolour halo-ing around the whole building, to the extent that it almost looks like it's been photoshopped from some shiney sticker or something, football sticker style... Nothing personal, but this is so far from the standard I expect sorry... gazhiley 09:01, 23 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. As per Gaz, that is some terrible processing, sorry. The main source of the problem that I can see is the ISO you used. ISO 2000 is much too high for a photo like this. Landscape photography should really (ideally) be ISO 200 or lower for maximum quality. If the scene is dark (and it seems it was given the shutter speed at ISO 2000), you probably need to use a tripod. HDR probably wasn't even necessary for a scene like this also.

Oppose Turn down the ISO man. This thing is hurting my ears (too noisy, as stated above.) Dusty777 16:17, 23 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose "Is of a high technical standard and Is of high resolution." In what universe? Not this one, for sure. Daniel Case (talk) 23:34, 26 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
