•  Support - I don't know whether this will be judged an FP or only a good QI, but this is the only way to find out. I think it's a beautiful landscape, and it reminds me of some of the landscapes my father painted in New England in the late 60s and early 70s. It's a composition with several distinct grounds, if you like, rather than just a foreground, middleground and background, and then a sky with dramatic clouds. Among other things, I really love the very green mown grass crops in the foreground. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 06:12, 27 April 2016 (UTC)
•  Oppose from me, sorry. Certainly it is a nice scenery, but the image as such does not strike me outstanding nor even flawless (overexposed clouds). The ruined house on the lower right might have given an impressive subject :-) Foreground shows no mown grass but growing crops on a field, as does the middleground. Cropping, err, the crop out would give a better composition IMHO. Altogether nice but not exceptional. --Kreuzschnabel 09:07, 27 April 2016 (UTC)

•  Comment - I respect your opinion. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 07:06, 28 April 2016 (UTC)

•  Oppose It feels like it could be part of a featured landscape photo. But it's not there all by itself. Plus there's a blown highlight on the cloud. Daniel Case (talk) 03:30, 2 May 2016 (UTC)

•  Comment - I understand. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 05:47, 2 May 2016 (UTC)

 I withdraw my nomination - I like this photo a lot, but I understand perfectly why people aren't convinced to feature it. I've seen several photos since I nominated this one that really wow me. The standard of the best photos on this site is really high. With respect for both Jörg and the two people who posted reviews of this photo, I'd rather nominate another photo. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 08:38, 2 May 2016 (UTC)
