I have always thought that this image was very exciting. A sea of people extending as far back as the camera can see! It is also a great depiction of the third and final day of Sanja Matsuri, a large Japanese Shinto festival. It depicts important festival structures in the area and shows the enormous popularity of the festival.

Support. Powerful image, technically good, valuable as a lead image. J Milburn (talk) 22:36, 2 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose: Definitely a better image is possible without the capped head of a photographer, the pillar and the wire.--RedtigerxyzTalk 14:28, 3 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
