Support I think we need something for the season, and this one looks nice. -- Mbz1 (talk) 01:28, 19 December 2010 (UTC)
Support Simple enough, the bicycles set the scene nicely. Noodle snacks (talk) 02:34, 19 December 2010 (UTC)
Oppose I'm sorry, but the composition still seems too clutered and busy. --The High Fin Sperm Whale 04:54, 19 December 2010 (UTC)
- No problem. Opinions differ. I do not see the composition as cluttered myself. Christmas illumination is inherently related to areas of commerce in towns and cities. Thus, it is only natural that there are signs for the shops visible as well as other elements such as street lamps, etc (if those are the elements you refer to as clutter). The photo is taken after the shops closed, meaning the photo is not cluttered by the presence of goods for sale and additional signs on the street. There are also no people to clutter the composition. Thus, IMO the composition is as clutter-free as is realistically possible for this kind of subject. --Slaunger (talk) 07:21, 20 December 2010 (UTC)

Support Well done. --Cayambe (talk) 15:51, 19 December 2010 (UTC)
Oppose somehow i am not getting it. What is so special about that photo? --AngMoKio (座谈) 17:29, 19 December 2010 (UTC)
- This of course depends on personal preferences of each reviewer, but for me it is, in decreasing order of importance: Composition, value, ligtning, atmosphere, DOF, overall image quality. The lightning is LED based. I think it is clear from the photo, that the light from the LED illumination is pleasant and quite similar to traditional lightbulb illumination showing how much has been done over the years to improve the "quality" of LED light, which consumes much less energy and saves a lot of CO2 submission as compared to traditional light bulbs (14.5 t/year for the small town of Viborg alone). --Slaunger (talk) 22:53, 19 December 2010 (UTC)
Support Thanks Mila for nominating my photo! This photo is a followup on a previous nom, which I withdrew after having received some very sensible comments regarding possible improvements. I have tried to address those points in this new photo. --Slaunger (talk) 07:27, 20 December 2010 (UTC)
Support Yann (talk) 16:02, 20 December 2010 (UTC)
Oppose per The High Fin Sperm Whale.--MASHAUNIX 17:41, 20 December 2010 (UTC)
Oppose per AngMoKio. --Moros y Christianos 22:48, 20 December 2010 (UTC)
Info The photo appeared (with permission) in 16×26 cm printed format in a local Danish Newspaper printed in 10000 copies on December 20. --Slaunger (talk) 07:08, 21 December 2010 (UTC)
Support Then we have to congratulate. --Mile (talk) 19:15, 21 December 2010 (UTC)
Support --George Chernilevsky talk 06:41, 24 December 2010 (UTC)
Oppose --Martin Kozák (talk) 15:57, 24 December 2010 (UTC) – I don't see any feature thing on this picture. It's absolutely average one. Almost anyone can take similar on streets of most cities in my country. (But nobody does it because hasn't any reason take similar photos.) Strange.
- Wow, you must come from a place of photographic geniuses! Please share some examples with us. ;-) Alvesgaspar (talk) 16:26, 25 December 2010 (UTC)
- I think it is fantastic that almost everone in the Czech Republic could take similar photographs if only they found it relevant and did not have more important things to do. Congratulations! --Slaunger (talk) 21:28, 25 December 2010 (UTC)
- Extraordinary indeed! If only one of those could come here and help us with our pathetic attempts... Alvesgaspar (talk) 23:43, 25 December 2010 (UTC)
