- Reason
- No, not a planetary defence system. Sure, it is a bit noisy, but I don't think it matters. A related shot had a five minute exposure at iso 1600 on a 400D. Dropping the ISO would start to create star trails.

- Support. Eye-catching, nice lighting. Twilightchill t 23:56, 22 October 2010 (UTC)
- Support Wow this looks so awesome! Photo is adequately sharp in the middle, where sharpness matters. The object on the top left corner of the picture is rather annoying; but given that the field of view is 180 degrees, it is probably unavoidable. Purpy Pupple (talk) 04:15, 23 October 2010 (UTC)
- I might remove that bit of the caption - I don't think it is right. The photographer's other photo is taken with a sigma 10-20mm (so 102.4 degrees), which is still very wide, but not 180. This hasn't been taken with a circular fisheye. Noodle snacks (talk) 23:07, 23 October 2010 (UTC)

- Support per wow. Although the caption should better explain what's going on in the photo. --KFP (contact | edits) 17:22, 24 October 2010 (UTC)
