File:NYC Public Library Research Room Jan 2006.jpg[edit]

Original - A panoramic view of the Rose Main Reading Room, facing south.
Reason
It's a quality image that I think does a good job of illustrating both the architecture and functionality of the Research Room in the library.
Articles this image appears in
New York Public Library, New York Public Library Main Branch and Mid-Atlantic States (??)

  • Comment Looks like you have a stitching error on the ceiling where the third light on left (from foreground) connects to the ceiling. ~ ωαdεstεr16«talkstalk» 19:24, 10 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
    • Ooh, thanks for spotting that. Have fixed it. It was taken hand-held, so some minor parallax errors crept in. Diliff | (Talk) (Contribs) 20:15, 10 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support per nom. Is the triangular formation a distortion? --Muhammad(talk) 19:32, 10 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
    • Yes, it's almost a 180 degree viewing angle there, so there is distortion. It's a rectangular room. Diliff | (Talk) (Contribs) 20:02, 10 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support - A fascinating picture taken in difficult conditions. Clearly adds to the articles. Alvesgaspar (talk) 08:38, 11 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment per a discussion on the talk page, this image was removed from Mid-Atlantic States; though if that affects your vote... I'm not sure what to say. :-) wadester16 | Talk→ 15:42, 12 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
    • You bastard! ;-) No, I thought it was a bit silly too, but hey, the process asked me to list the articles it was in, so I did... Diliff | (Talk) (Contribs) 19:04, 12 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
