Original – Newly constructed interchange of Anthony Henday Drive and Highway 16 in Strathcona County, Alberta

Reason: High quality, high EV. Long exposure taken just a few days after the highway opened. Could also be of value at Yellowhead Trail, Alberta Highway 16, Transportation in Edmonton, overpass, or interchange.

Oppose – Could be anywhere, ergo scant EV. Sca (talk) 15:50, 29 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Could you clarify this? Do you mean something about the composition should make it more clear that the photo is in Edmonton? -- Acefitt 17:42, 29 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

It's a photo of a freeway/superhighway structure, of which there are many. It may be a fine structure engineering-wise, but I don't see any visual information about its function. It's a very large structure, with much empty space, so the third-level flyovers mentioned in the target article, while clear, aren't particularly evident as such.

Comment – I like the composition. The lens flare and chromatic aberration are a bit excessive IMO. Bammesk (talk) 03:02, 30 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

CA removed, colour tweaked

@Bammesk: ~~I can mostly fix aberration in Lightroom and upload a revised version; it's the best I could do with the terrible Nikon 18-55mm kit lens.~~ See right for corrected image. I also have this image, a different composition with no flare. -- Acefitt 04:47, 30 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I would support the other image, linked above. It's more close-up, showing features more clearly, and more dramatic. Sca (talk) 15:57, 30 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I will renominate that photo and this one can be speedy closed. -- Acefitt 16:34, 30 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
