  • Support as nom, though it was suggested by Solipsist on the talk page. As to whether it's 'representative' or not, it could be argued either way – one the one hand it's utterly atypical of London architecture, on the other, it's an illustration of the city's multicultural nature. Rather than having hang-ups over such matters I think we should simply seek out high-quality pictures while trying, as much as possible, to achieve some balance in our overall selection.

  • Support. A great photo. Again, bollocks to "representative" — London is a melting pot, so should our showcases be. — OwenBlacker 08:41, 15 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Support as nom. Yet another of Diliff's featured pictures of London, this time of a gem in Albertopolis. To anyone who finds it too reminiscent of a picture-postcard, please accept my apologies in advance. Ham 19:24, 1 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Support Good picture of a good area in London. Tbo 157talk 22:28, 8 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Support as nom. Provides an unusual perspective on familiar London landmarks: the ubiquitous heroic military statue, the imposing government building facade, the rushing Hackney cab—and the varied tokens of history ("The Women"). Strong composition too that's not the typical London photo. AldaronT/C 00:08, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Support - This is an unusual image that captures both the dynamism and classicism of London. The fast-moving taxi that separates the vertical/horizontal male/female adds another curious tension. Excellent photo. Skintight (talk) 02:29, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
