Oppose - Crop too tight, oversharpened (heavy fringing) and too small. Also, the caption should refer, at least, the meaning of the piece and its author! -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 23:56, 23 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. Is the work of sculpture that is depicted here subject to copyright? Also, doubtful encyclopedicity for Reykjavik. Spikebrennan (talk) 03:16, 24 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This is a suspected copyright violation because freedom of panorama in Iceland is essentially for non-commercial uses only. Does anyone want to start a commons deletion request? MER-C 07:36, 24 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose. Looks over-saturated and over-sharpened. Also likely a copyright vio. Kaldari (talk) 17:00, 24 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Per Kaldari. Also, the crop is fairly tight; I'd like some more empty border space.--HereToHelp ^{(talk to me)} 15:27, 28 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
