Weak Support There is a decent amount of EV in this image. Per nom, angle is good. Image is soft at full resolution; it seems it was focused on the other side of the fence. Good composition otherwise.--Wingtipvorte^X PTT ∅ 17:09, 10 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Support Quality is alright; the perspective is good for EV as it emphasizes the extent of the barrier. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 05:12, 15 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Weak oppose this has focus problems on the far left and also loses focus into the distance. I would support this same shot if we could get it without focus problems. Pine^✉ 08:19, 16 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Support. Good quality and unique display. It got me to look close into it. ComputerJA (talk) 20:24, 16 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Neutral It's focused on the fence, not the road - that's a good thing! However this is only f/5.6 and didn't need the high shutter speed used, so greater depth was possible, and I cannot support. --99of9 (talk) 00:07, 17 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- It was not shooted by a professional photographer. Tomer T (talk) 09:24, 17 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  - I am not either, so this is not professional advice ;-). But I do think that FP should be the best we've got - often that is achieved by amateurs, but sometimes it's not. --99of9 (talk) 10:38, 17 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

*Support - from my perspective having had a look I don't think the technical flaws have much of an impact on the image's encyclopedic value and don't outweigh it. Grandiose (me, talk, contribs) 18:35, 18 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
