•  Oppose - Good but not exceptional, IMO. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 03:08, 25 August 2018 (UTC)
•  Oppose Agree with Ikan. In particular the light is not very cooperative -- Basile Morin (talk) 03:48, 25 August 2018 (UTC)
•  Oppose per Ikan and Basile. Not quite sharp either, the people seem disturbing to me, one of them cut off. This lighthouse may be a good motif, though. --Basotxerri (talk) 16:43, 25 August 2018 (UTC)
•  Oppose Clouds may not be blown, but they're close to it, and no less distracting all the same. At the very least the photographer should have waited until the sun was out; the dimmed look is why I try to avoid shooting buildings on clear partly sunny days when the sun is obscured by clouds.

  • I took this one when I did because of the shape of the clouds--I see a wave crashing over the lighthouse. But I see what you're saying and most people aren't going to see the same thing in the clouds that I do. I have a photo of a different lighthouse (taken on the same trip) which I think is more in line with the comments here (full sun, less clouds, no cropped people). Is it bad etiquette to make a new nomination of a similar photo too soon? (I don't want it to come across as spamming...) Kiprobinson (talk) 01:53, 27 August 2018 (UTC)

No, it is not bad etiquette. You are allowed to have 2 concurrent nominations, anyway. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 07:35, 27 August 2018 (UTC)

Thank you for nominating this image. Unfortunately, it does not fall within the Guidelines and is unlikely to succeed for the following reason: per opposes votes. Ezarateesteban 23:47, 25 August 2018 (UTC)
