• Support - flawless composition, excellent detail. This is the clearest and crispest image of the Taj Mahal on Commons. Tim Pierce (talk) 15:34, 19 September 2010 (UTC)
• Comment Just so everyone is aware: current Taj Mahal FP. Makeemlighter (talk) 00:45, 20 September 2010 (UTC)
  • This nom is kind of dark and they have different framing, but this one has fewer people. --I'ḏ♥One 01:15, 20 September 2010 (UTC)
    • The current FP of the Taj Mahal is overexposed. I think it would not get FP status with the current quality standard. Yann (talk) 07:21, 20 September 2010 (UTC)
      • If you feel this image is so clearly stronger, perhaps you should make an effort to replace the other usages of the current FP with this one. J Milburn (talk) 17:11, 20 September 2010 (UTC)

• Comment: Unless I'm missing something, in supporting this, you are saying it is stronger than our other featured picture, as they are showing the same thing and serve the same purpose. J Milburn (talk) 22:04, 20 September 2010 (UTC)
• Comment Having been there, I'd say this needs to be brightened up quite a lot. It is a bit better than the old one, but it wouldn't be too hard to expect a really high resolution panorama or something sooner or later for this building. What I'd actually really like to see actually is a close up shot of the marble marquetry on the building itself. Noodle snacks (talk) 03:14, 21 September 2010 (UTC)
