  • Symbol oppose vote.svg Oppose - No explanation of anything (what are the green rings in the air? what are the red and blue-green glows?), and also people are blurred. - MPF (talk) 10:39, 9 June 2010 (UTC)

  • Symbol oppose vote.svg Oppose -- Image quality and composition (with the blurred foreground) not the best. -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 17:01, 9 June 2010 (UTC)
  • Symbol support vote.svg Support Wow you two are a piece of work. Blurred people on a long exposure shot ? How strange !! - BTW this effect is commonly used in night shots, to contrast with the immobility of the scene, as here. Nice composition : good framing & some lead-in is present, the blurred foreground adds depth to the image. It could be cropped, though I prefer it there (also dimensions make it suitable for desktop wallpaper). Quality is good for a night shot. -- ianaré (talk) 22:09, 9 June 2010 (UTC)
    • Pictogram voting comment.svg Comment the blurred people are an issue (they could have been asked to hold steady for the photo!), but the lack of information is much more why I opposed. The info won't be easily available either, as the photographer isn't a Commons contributor who can be asked for more detail - MPF (talk) 20:08, 11 June 2010 (UTC)
  • Pictogram voting comment.svg Comment I like it, but I think it needs an explication about the blue and red glows and why there are some green rings. --Llorenzi (talk) 08:08, 10 June 2010 (UTC)
  • Symbol support vote.svg Support Very interesting. The green rings are lights on the ends of the propeller blades, time-lapsed. Jujutacular T · C 14:22, 10 June 2010 (UTC)

  • Symbol oppose vote.svg Oppose for now. The description given is simply inadequate. There has been inconclusive speculation about what we're seeing on the image's talk page for more than a year. I agree with Ianare about the blurred people and foreground, and the good general image quality. I would support if a convincing description of the interesting lighting effects was given. --Avenue (talk) 09:47, 12 June 2010 (UTC)
