  • Support very nice. Nikhil(talk) 02:55, 17 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Holy mother of... support. If our photographs are getting this big, and this sharp, we might as well try for a one gigapixel image and say "take that Google" — Crisco 1492 (talk) 01:43, 18 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support But as for EV, should this picture not be in the infobox instead of buried in the article? It is superior to the low resolution photograph currently there. Mattximus (talk) 14:28, 18 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
    • Wide images are often a bad idea in infoboxes; indeed, some infoboxes don't even allow you to resize. Ideally, I suppose, we'd want something like looking across the bridge from one bank for the infobox, as that'd fit best. Adam Cuerden (talk) 22:57, 18 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
      • Indeed, however the image already found in the infobox is almost identical in proportions to the one proposed here but of inferior quality. Just a comment, support not conditional on this change. Mattximus (talk) 03:34, 19 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
        • Aye, I noticed that, but I'm not sure screwing up the good photo is a good solution. =) Adam Cuerden (talk) 21:22, 19 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • By the way, is there any chance of improving Commons' large image viewer so it doesn't break on these very large images? It'd make it far easier for most of us to see and appreciate them. Adam Cuerden (talk) 10:56, 21 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support Some superb night photography. Jujutacular (talk) 12:19, 21 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
