  • Oppose. Err.. Not at all innovative. Its exactly what you see when you stand nearby and look up. :) Diliff | (Talk) (Contribs) 22:45, 3 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose Can't tell what it's shaped like. ~MDD4696 00:04, 4 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose I'm sure it is impressive, but from the picture it looks like an oversized glass egg. A good picture, but it just doesn't do it justice.--Lewk_of_Serthic contrib talk 02:04, 4 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
    • That is actually what it looks like. Well, an oversized, stretched egg. :) This is a far better view, giving it good context. Diliff | (Talk) (Contribs) 06:28, 4 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
      • Comment It's known locally as the "Erotic gherkin" for reasons which are more obvious in the full size pic ;) chowells 08:12, 4 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
      • That is a weird building! --Lewk_of_Serthic contrib talk 02:22, 5 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Very very beautiful and sharp picture, so I'll give you a weak support. --Golbez 06:50, 4 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose not that special and the building is a) not near centred and b) has the one side cut off.say1988 03:47, 5 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose It's an interesting building, but not a very imaginative photo. --Philopedia 14:10, 8 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
