Support Sharp, with good handling of the potential perspective issues. Verticals don't look very vertical though, consider rotating 3.99 degrees to the left? - ZephyrisTalk 17:50, 11 May 2013 (UTC)reply
Oppose - I feel that the tower should have been photographed more towards the left of the picture, it looks weird the way it currently is.

Weak support Fantastic EV, I agree, but I also agree with Zephyris that the image isn't, ironically, straight, so the tower probably appears more tilted than it really is. A bit contrasty, and it's a shame the lower right corner is a billboard for Li-ning sportswear. – Kerαunoςcopia◁galaxies 01:29, 13 May 2013 (UTC)reply
Oppose My opinion is swayed by the comments below. Great picture, but not the best it could be. – Kerαunoςcopia◁galaxies 19:31, 13 May 2013 (UTC)reply
Oppose at least for now. While I respect the views of the editors who've posted above, I have to say that I'm a bit surprised that this has attracted so much support. This is an easily reproducible photo (it must be taken hundreds, if not thousands, of times per day) and is obviously tilted. This would be a problem for most photos of cityscapes, and is particularly problematic given that the leaning tower of Pisa is best known for the angle at which it leans.

Support nice image and good clarity. While I agree with Nick-D that this is an easily reproducible photo, but this pic is freely available and has a very good clarity. Also, I feel the barricade in the foreground, though not perfectly vertical, demonstrates the angle at which the tower leans.

How come the barricade in the foreground is relatively vertical, but the buildings in the background are less so? Is this due to the wide angle lens? – Kerαunoςcopia◁galaxies 18:43, 13 May 2013 (UTC)reply
Oppose per Nick-D. This can easily be retaken. And the angle at which it leans is on of the tower's main features, ergo we should display that correctly. --

Oppose as above. This is such a heavily photographed building that we should want to get it absolutely right.
