•  Info This is the most iconic country view of the Alentejo region in Portugal: an undulated field populated by a few solitary cork oaks. In the present case the view is much enriched by the bright green of growing rye or wheat. Taken yesterday near the village of Cercal do Alentejo and the dam of Campilhas.

•  Comment Sorry to spoil the party, but it is not there yet. There is a potential, but the composition is not optimal: the tree is too small, and the rule of third not respected. Something like File:Campilhas March 2015 edit.jpg would be better. I also think the colors are oversaturated. Regards, Yann (talk) 19:34, 1 April 2015 (UTC)
  • @Yann: Thanks for the suggestion. The idea most often associated with the Alentejo countryside is the one of emptiness, loneliness and silence. That was precisely what I wanted to convey with this photo and the original version does it better, in my opinion. Alvesgaspar (talk) 20:30, 1 April 2015 (UTC)
•  Support Good work! --· Favalli ⟡ 02:02, 2 April 2015 (UTC)
•  Neutral As it is, I think the tree is too black (too much contrast) and saturation feels unnatural, too. I'm not even worried about this being realistic, I just think it would also look better with a more natural look. — Julian H.^✈ 06:13, 2 April 2015 (UTC)
