•  Comment It’s a good idea to create a version of this beautiful photo without the labels on the mountains. However something went wrong while editing the photo: the sky now shows some posterization which is not present in the original photo. It should be possible to remove the labels without generating posterization. --Aristeas (talk) 08:32, 27 April 2022 (UTC)

   Done Thanks! I had made several edits apart from removing the labels, including removing CAs (so many af them were hiding in different parts of the image, thus did this several times) some colour correction etc. The posterization must’ve crept in, I’ve edited the original and made all edits at once to that, please let me know if this one is satisfactory.

   Comment Thank you, UnpetitproleX! The sky is much better now. --Aristeas (talk) 13:57, 27 April 2022 (UTC)

•  Support Why mountains are always beautiful :-) --SHB2000 (talk) 10:32, 28 April 2022 (UTC)

* Oppose Very picturesque, and it would probably fully satisfy me if there were some strategically placed clouds above the mountains. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 02:20, 29 April 2022 (UTC)

•  Support I hestiated a bit because the buildings in the foreground are a bit soft. But this can be explained by the need for strong noise reduction which was caused by the shadow on that area. Yes, the cloudless morning sky looks almost too grand to be real. But why shouldn’t the sunrise over the holy mountain Kinnaur Kailash, traditionally believed to be Shiva’s winter residence ([1]), be perfectly clear and serene? ;–) --Aristeas (talk) 07:28, 29 April 2022 (UTC)

•  Comment Good argument. On that basis, I've crossed out my opposing vote. Although one could argue that with Shiva being the Destroyer, a more dramatic sky with swirling clouds could be good. :-) -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 08:31, 29 April 2022 (UTC)

•  Comment Yes, of course, a dramatic stormy sky would be very appropriate, too ;–). --Aristeas (talk) 08:35, 29 April 2022 (UTC)

•  Weak support Very nice photo but image quality maybe a little on the low side Cmao20 (talk) 13:03, 29 April 2022 (UTC)
•  Regretful oppose A sky that colorful doesn't need clouds IMO, but, alas, too much of the image is unsharp and yet the ridgeline itself looks oversharpened. Daniel Case (talk) 18:54, 29 April 2022 (UTC)
•  Comment It seems, with insufficient support, this nom is headed towards a non-feature. Though I am glad that at least the picture could be improved as a result of the nom. Thanks to all voters. --UnpetitproleX (talk) 13:42, 3 May 2022 (UTC)
