•  Info Philippsruhe castle in Hanau-Kesselstadt, west facade, seen from the park. All by me. -- Milseburg (talk) 15:55, 31 October 2023 (UTC)
•  Support -- Milseburg (talk) 15:55, 31 October 2023 (UTC)
•  Oppose. The roof is not straight.  Podstawko  ●talk  17:02, 31 October 2023 (UTC)
•  Oppose no reason for a vanishing point on the (far far) right in my view here. - Benh (talk) 20:56, 31 October 2023 (UTC)
•  Comment This photo has many advantages – good colours, beautiful sky, the light emphasizes the three-dimensional parts of the façade, etc. I assume this image has been stitched from at least two shots. @Milseburg: Could you check the projection? I would not mind that the view is not totally symmetrical, but some of the horizontal lines seem a tiny little bit bent at the right, so maybe a small change to the projection could mitigate the objections. --Aristeas (talk) 11:06, 2 November 2023 (UTC)
•  Comment Thanks for the criticism. I uploaded a new version with a horizontal roof and a slightly changed alignment. --Milseburg (talk) 17:12, 3 November 2023 (UTC)
•  Support Thank you! In my eyes a very pretty and impressive photo and much better than all the others I have reviewed in Oct 2022 for WLM. Any remaining asymmetries etc. can easily be explained by small asymmetries in the castle itself; it’s old ;–). --Aristeas (talk) 20:09, 3 November 2023 (UTC)

  • also by the photographer's position, a bit off, very noticeable on the central part's roof. Probably to avoid the right tree. - Benh (talk) 23:20, 3 November 2023 (UTC)

•  Support A nice FP. ★ 21:54, 4 November 2023 (UTC)

•  Oppose This is a very good, valuable QI/VI to me. It's a very nice Schloss, but the trees on the right don't help it and there just isn't anything else very interesting in the photo. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 05:39, 5 November 2023 (UTC)

•  Oppose. After the alignment changes I'm still opposing. The problem is not really in perspective correction in pp, but in where you were standing -- you were not centered on the building, i.e. were not positioned exactly opposite the door. This skews the perspective and can be seen in the columns, the clock tower, etc.  Podstawko  ●talk  07:15, 5 November 2023 (UTC) I stroken your second vote because you already voted above. --Milseburg (talk) 14:04, 7 November 2023 (UTC)
•  Support--Agnes Monkelbaan (talk) 15:16, 5 November 2023 (UTC)
•  Oppose Not quite symmetrical, if we compare the positions of the lions, columns, and facade. An architectural shot like this in broad daylight is not particularly difficult technically so I think we can be a bit more demanding in terms of perfection. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 03:17, 6 November 2023 (UTC)

  • This seems like the best compromise though. If photographer moves to the middle, then the right tree would partially cover the right aisle (see also GPS location on Google Maps). -

•  Neutral Per both parties above Poco a poco (talk) 14:42, 6 November 2023 (UTC)
•  Comment In my opinion, symmetry should not be overemphasized here. Clouds, vegetation and even what is to see behind the windows refuse it. --Milseburg (talk) 14:04, 7 November 2023 (UTC)
