•  Info Ships from the George H.W. Bush Carrier Strike Group simulate a strait transit. The strike group is conducting a pre-deployment evaluation. Created by US Navy/MC3 Justin Wolpert - uploaded by Marcd30319 - nominated by KennyOMG -- KennyOMG (talk) 19:01, 11 March 2017 (UTC)

•  Comment - I'm not so sure about this one. The crops seem at first to be problematic, and there are several dust or water spots on the image. Sure, it has a general aura of impressiveness, but I'm not so sure it stands out from among other US Military photos we're considered (and in most cases, promoted). On the other hand, the grainy view of waves with ships reminds me of Romantic paintings, and the composition is growing on me. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 19:54, 11 March 2017 (UTC)
•  Comment - the horizon is not horizontal. --Villy Fink Isaksen (talk) 20:36, 11 March 2017 (UTC)
•  Oppose Sorry, there are just too many issues with this: bad crop, very grainy, CA everywhere, vignetting, ships scattered, dull light. Had this been a WWII photo, it might have been acceptable, but not for a modern photo. --cart-Talk 20:51, 11 March 2017 (UTC)
•  Info If you could delete these dust spots (near left and right border) and the CAs I would support this picture, as I think the grainy structure goes with the topic and the weather (although the crop is a bit tight on the right) --PtrQs (talk) 00:40, 12 March 2017 (UTC)
•  Oppose; cart again pretty much sums up why. Daniel Case (talk) 03:50, 12 March 2017 (UTC)
•  Oppose per above --Martin Falbisoner (talk) 09:23, 12 March 2017 (UTC)
