- Oppose - I think a much better photo could be taken - better lighting (more surface relief), better sky, fewer (or no) distracting people. --Janke | Talk 19:15, 12 March 2022 (UTC)
- Oppose – good EV but I agree with Janke (lighting, sky, people). Bammesk (talk) 19:39, 12 March 2022 (UTC)

- Oppose. Drab lighting, boring composition, distracting tree in background. File:Cleos Needle fr east jeh.jpg has much nicer light and detail on the needle despite the even more boring composition. File:USA-NYC-Central Park-Cleopatra's Needle5 (cropped).jpg demonstrates some of the compositional possibilities despite being marred by foreground branches blocking the peak of the needle. —David Eppstein (talk) 01:59, 17 March 2022 (UTC)
