• Tsikourios tower is a typical Maniot tower-house, with the multi-story tower and the enclosure. Now it lies abandoned.  Support -- C messier (talk) 09:46, 18 January 2026 (UTC)

•  Oppose Well composed and good quality. Nothing more. Alvesgaspar (talk) 00:12, 19 January 2026 (UTC)
•  Support The combination of this foreground with that great background makes this more than just well composed and good quality to me, but a bit of judicious noise reduction in the sky would improve the picture. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 08:10, 19 January 2026 (UTC)
•  Support Excellent overview of an exemplary representative of the Mani towers. The image shows both the complete building complex and its situation on the hill over the valley and before the higher mountains, thus hinting at the historical reasons for building a fortified tower in this place. Agree that the sky could withstand some noise removal – unlike other parts of a photo, the sky usually looses no information through noise reduction. – Aristeas (talk) 11:24, 19 January 2026 (UTC)

•  Oppose There's nothing wrong with the photo, and it undoubtedly documents the subject very well, but there's nothing exceptional about it to warrant FP status. AVDLCZ (talk) 19:10, 22 January 2026 (UTC)
•  Weak oppose A hard one, the subject is FP-worthy but I would have gone for a landscape format and not such a tight crop at the top to show the mountains and achieve a better balance shot. Poco a poco (talk) 09:33, 24 January 2026 (UTC)
•  Neutral agree with poco about the top crop, though it's not quite enough to push me into oppose — Rhododendrites ^talk |  23:17, 24 January 2026 (UTC)
•  Oppose I just can't get used to drone photos because the technical image quality isn't good enough; I often find that the finer details are missing. In terms of image composition, I find 2–3 other images in this category much better because they have greater documentary value and fit better into the context of the surroundings. For me, this image has the least wow factor. --Achim Lammerts • Syntaxys (talk) 06:34, 25 January 2026 (UTC)
