  • For softness, I don't quite mind as this is at a high resolution. If we were to insist on sharpness, we'd probably end up with a downsampled image. I cannot comment on dust spots as this monitor is insanely dirty (I'm not at home) Crisco 1492 (talk) 01:58, 4 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • I took the resolution into account, which is why I only opposed weakly. But even at the reduced resolution you added (and I had looked at it downsampled before voting), it's visibly unsharp, particularly on any of the spires. I can make exceptions for underwater photography, concert pics, other live events, animals (they move) and plants (wind is often an issue), but this is too easily reproducible to consider it our best work.
