According to FPC#5, "A picture's encyclopedic value (referred to as 'EV') is given priority over its artistic value". My picture has significantly more EV than the previous one, which showed only a small portion of this massive complex.

one. Personally, I find the previous photo sharper and more visually interesting, due in part to contrast from shadowing. (Though I realize the nominated pic shows more of the ruins.)

It's probably just the light but it looks washed-out to me. I prefer the panorama shot in the article (also yours) though being a lazy cow I've only had a quick look at it.

Not for me sorry - the whole picture is blurred, other than a very small part in the centre... Cropping the edges doesn't change that...
176:- Useful, but it only shows parts of the ruins, and the lens distortion around the edges (particularly that right edge) is horrendous. — 71: 114: 282: 247: 206: 142: 103: 224:- the blur/softness at the edges is a big issue. Only the very centre of the picture seems to have clarity... 276:
No worries. Maybe Santa will be generous enough to leave me a medium format camera with lenses this year.
277: 242: 201: 181: 137: 98: 87: 50: 198: 197:; the only way to show the entire ruin is from the air, such as with this image I uploaded in May: 241:
You guys were right about the blurriness, so I cropped out the edges. Does it look better now?

It's of a high technical standard that exceeds our expectations for minimum resolution.

Arguably, yes. Others may have opinions different from mine.
