  • People are sunbathing and facing the sun. I believe that add some context around the palais. That park is full of people enjoying sun, and I think it's representative of parisian lifestyle, hence some encyclopaedic value... that's just my opinion though.

This isn't because of tilt, but because of perspective. I guess you simply meant you didn't like the view. But there's no tilt. Blieusong (talk) 16:40, 26 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
The view would preferably be head-on, reducing distortion. SpencerT♦C 19:02, 26 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Please oppose for valid reasons... the picture is not tilted as far as I know (or point me where you see the tilt). It's certainly not soft as well... Keep in mind this is a 10mpix picture, not downsampled, which shows certainly much more details than many of the 1600x1000 pictures featured here.
