- Support as nominator – Tomer T (talk) 14:40, 14 February 2022 (UTC)
- Oppose Low POV and too much foreground. Light. And the bird. As I posted on Commons FP where it is a current nomination. Charlesjsharp (talk) 16:53, 14 February 2022 (UTC)
- Oppose – the composition doesn't stand out, it looks bland. Bammesk (talk) 04:05, 15 February 2022 (UTC)
- Oppose – Per Charles. EV seems doubtful. – Sca (talk) 13:37, 15 February 2022 (UTC)
- Support – Thank you very much for the nomination, Tomer T. I would like to mention that I chose the low point of view intentionally to make the seagull more central. The bird and the yard have an important role in this picture. The seagull is a metaphorical symbol for the lostness of the prisoners, but it can fly away at any time, what the inmates could do only in their dreams.
