Could you clarify this? Do you mean something about the composition should make it more clear that the photo is in Edmonton? -- Acefitt 17:42, 29 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
It's a photo of a freeway/superhighway structure, of which there are many. It may be a fine structure engineering-wise, but I don't see any visual information about its function. It's a very large structure, with much empty space, so the third-level flyovers mentioned in the target article, while clear, aren't particularly evident as such.

CA removed, colour tweaked
@Bammesk: I can mostly fix aberration in Lightroom and upload a revised version; it's the best I could do with the terrible Nikon 18-55mm kit lens. See right for corrected image. I also have this image, a different composition with no flare. -- Acefitt 04:47, 30 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I would support the other image, linked above. It's more close-up, showing features more clearly, and more dramatic. Sca (talk) 15:57, 30 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I will renominate that photo and this one can be speedy closed. -- Acefitt 16:34, 30 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
