  • Support I checked commons:Commons:Freedom_of_panorama#United_States, as a copyright check, and we're fine. Nice photo, not perfect (it's a teensy bit out of focus), but good. Adam Cuerden (talk) 03:28, 9 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose nice colors but has too many problems with focus to be a featured picture. --Pine 09:51, 9 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose Partly as per Pine, but mainly as each spire is leaning towards the centre rather than verticle. Most noticible with the tallest spire which looks like one strong gust of wind and it'll fall off... gazhiley 13:41, 10 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
    • According to the article, 'An optical trick known as forced perspective makes the Castle appear even larger than it actually is. As it becomes taller, its proportions get smaller. For example, using this method, the top spire of the Castle is actually close to half of the size it "appears." ' Not sure if the mentioned leaning is actually part of the architectural design, and how perspective should be presented in such a case. --125.25.5.90 (talk) 19:03, 10 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose Even though there don't seem to be any in the article, I have to imagine that a better photograph of this is possible. That's not to say that this is bad but for something like the Cinderella Castle that is probably photographed a million times a year, the bar should be incredibly high and this just doesn't meet it.
