• Question Since this is essentially an image of a 3-dimensional piece of artwork, shouldn't it have a copyright status tag on the information page? Rreagan007 (talk) 06:51, 21 November 2013 (UTC)

Thank you Rreagan007 for pointing that out. The proper FoP Germany template tag has been added.-Godot13 (talk) 00:42, 22 November 2013 (UTC)

• Support I think that the crop is a tad top-heavy (I'd trim a sliver off from the top so that the amount of brick around the outside is move even), but this captures a detailed scuplture that is technically difficult to photography (both because of placement and because it's shiny) very well. I see sufficient EV in the article Böttcherstraße as well. Sven Manguard Wha? 20:23, 24 November 2013 (UTC)
