- Info created by Ptahhotep - uploaded by Ptahhotep - nominated by Kiril Simeonovski -- Kiril Simeonovski (talk) 10:36, 14 March 2017 (UTC)
- Support -- Kiril Simeonovski (talk) 10:36, 14 March 2017 (UTC)
- Oppose Birds resting on a ruined pier is a common motif. I've done it myself: File:Old Pier, Salen, Isle of Mull.jpg. I don't think this photo has enough going on to appreciate the landscape, but also too much to be minimalist. The image quality isn't superb either. -- Colin (talk) 15:05, 14 March 2017 (UTC)
- Support Lovely abstraction. Daniel Case (talk) 15:08, 14 March 2017 (UTC)
- Oppose I cannot see anything special in composition or lighting. Charles (talk) 15:18, 14 March 2017 (UTC)
- Oppose The dull light is not enough for this scene. A bit more random glints or something that could have made the rain more distinguishable from the background mountains could have pushed it over to FP and possibly also allowed for some better sharpness. --cart-Talk 00:01, 15 March 2017 (UTC)
Alt version[edit]
- Info Since this kind of picture actually appeals to me, I tried to give it some TLC based mainly on my own comment above. Not sure if I succeeded or if I ruined the mood, take a look and judge for yourself. Pinging voters: Colin, Daniel Case, Charles. If the nominator Kiril Simeonovski or the author Ptahhotep object to this alt, please just remove it. Best, --cart-Talk 14:43, 15 March 2017 (UTC)
- Support I like this one just a little better, actually. Daniel Case (talk) 15:03, 15 March 2017 (UTC)
- Oppose I'm afraid it doesn't improve it significantly for me. For me, this cliched motif has to be a much higher standard. -- Colin (talk) 16:16, 15 March 2017 (UTC)
- Oppose still no for me. Charles (talk) 18:30, 15 March 2017 (UTC)
- I withdraw my nomination @W.carter: Thank you for the work done in improving the image quality, but the opposition is supported with well-stated arguments and it is not likely that this is going to pass.--Kiril Simeonovski (talk) 08:09, 16 March 2017 (UTC)
