- Support It's also worth noting that the park this is in (Keep River National Park) very far away from almost anywhere else – I can't exactly find the distance from the rock art to the nearest town, but I can say with confidence that it's a lot. --SHB2000 (talk) 05:57, 28 August 2023 (UTC)

- Oppose The wow effect I see in the artwork and the performance of the artist, with the photo I can not see that. Ermell (talk) 20:38, 29 August 2023 (UTC)
- It's around 5,000 years old – of course it's not going to be striking as a piece of rock art today or even 1,000 years ago. --SHB2000 (talk) 22:17, 29 August 2023 (UTC)
- Oppose I agree with Ermell, and you misread what he said, which is that the art is wowing but the photograph is not. I think the inclusion of other parts of the rock face that are the same color as the artwork or that have what I consider in context an overly active texture distracts from it, and a much closer crop around the art would give it a much better presentation. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 17:11, 30 August 2023 (UTC)
- Personally, I've always found Indigenous rock art more interesting (and more appealing) when it has a bit of its surrounds, primarily because you can actually tell it is rock art, whereas you can't if it's cropped (this is something I learned from my personal photos, though the rock art in my area tends to be more red hands and less on animals, which can be a differing factor). --SHB2000 (talk) 10:51, 31 August 2023 (UTC)
