- Oppose. Unnecessarily small, odd fringes on the right edge, and most importantly: the overuse of HDR makes it impossible to get a realistic impression of how smog looks (which supposedly is the whole point of the picture). --Dschwen 22:55, 9 April 2008 (UTC)

- Weak oppose This is just too artificial. It looks like a 3D render. In other words, way too much HDR. It's not very big either. I like the image, but the enc. has been reduced by the artistic modifications. TheOtherSiguy (talk) 00:30, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
- Oppose Small and distorted... Kinda reminds me of SimCity... 8thstar 00:31, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
- the original image on flickr is around 10 mexapixels so I uploaded the full res, it still has an inappropriate filename Thisglad (talk) 01:35, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
- Lol, it does really look like SimCity. TheOtherSiguy (talk) 22:17, 11 April 2008 (UTC)
- Oppose As the subject seems to be 'smog', this picture doesn't really show me that. The buildings in the middle seem to be the main focus of this photo. crassic![talk] 02:35, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
- Oppose. Does not show its subject in a verifiable way. Papa Lima Whiskey (talk) 18:30, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
- Oppose non-descriptive title, too much HDR. SpencerT♦C 22:40, 12 April 2008 (UTC)
- Support I think this has merit. Look at the article - all the other pictures could just be fog - to me, the blurring of the sun here shows dirty atmospheric pollution. The Sim city buildings are interesting and tell me something I did not know about Delhi. The juxtaposition with the Monet in the article is brilliant. And this all goes against my immediate negative reaction to the picture itself. Motmit (talk) 07:46, 14 April 2008 (UTC)
