Saint Louis Skyline edit

The skyline of Saint Louis, Missouri.

October 2004, Paul M. Girouard. I woke up real early one morning, and snapped this picture of my hometown as the sun rose. View from the east bank of the Mississippi River, looking towards downtown Saint Louis, Missouri.

Comment: I lived in St. Louis for a few years, and one could get better pictures of the St. Louis skyline. Maybe try getting the Arch at the left of the frame, and fitting in more of the Laclede's Landing/Eads bridge side of the Arch, it's more interesting than the blue sky...

Oppose Agree with the above. This photo would look more interesting at night] --Fir0002 08:26, 19 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Reluctant Oppose: I lived in St. Loius for a few years, and have been through St. Louis before on my trips back east. In my opinion, this picture doesn't do St. Lou's skyline justice. TomStar81 00:51, 21 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose per above. In addition, I feel that the arch in the center is distracting. Flcelloguy (A note?) 21:48, 21 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Ummm... Hello? The arch is the defining aspect of the St. Louis skyline. - Cuivienen 04:08, 22 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose. There's that horrible gleaming building. Although the arch may be the defining aspect of the area, the overall effect a little dull. enochlau (talk) 15:06, 22 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
