- Reason
- I'm giving a try despite some scaffolding, which is rather compensated by huge resolution. This is also perhaps the finest Hadrian Arch out of three known, eclipsing even that in Italy.

- Support - Per Nom. Excellent resolution and quality. The scaffolding seems to indicate the size of the entrance. Nikhil (talk) 02:36, 17 January 2014 (UTC)
- Comment I find the framing somewhat unbalanced, with too much sky on the top. On the other hand File:Hadrian Arc Pan-2.jpg I find just slightly too tight. Perhaps would be worth trying a square crop. --ELEKHHT 03:00, 17 January 2014 (UTC)
- Weak oppose - Per Elekhh and the non-vertical verticals. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 09:12, 17 January 2014 (UTC)
- How's that? It's hard to tell from photos on the Internet which bits of the arch are plumb and which are not, so I rotated just a little to level the foundation. The verticals are more vertical and the steps are flat, but the top of the structure is slated (as I suspect is the real thing). Of course, the whole thing may have subsided, but I couldn't find any reference that says so. Also square cropped, as suggested. nagualdesign (talk) 03:26, 18 January 2014 (UTC)
- Alright, that's better. Support alt. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 11:29, 18 January 2014 (UTC)
