- Support -- Wolfgang Moroder (talk) 10:41, 17 October 2014 (UTC)
- Comment Maybe a little bit bluish. -- Christian Ferrer Talk / Images 16:41, 17 October 2014 (UTC)
- Comment I have corrected the white balance but on a day like that and at that altitude (2900 m) the blue is dominant. Thanks for your comment --Wolfgang Moroder (talk) 17:11, 17 October 2014 (UTC)
- Support In full size the quality is disappointing, however, the view is too spectacular --Wilfredo R. Rodríguez H. (talk) 01:58, 18 October 2014 (UTC)
- Oppose. When your subject is mostly drab colors, it makes lighting all the more important. It just looks too dull and would be better if it were taken at sunrise or sunset. --King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 04:54, 18 October 2014 (UTC)
- Oppose Agree with King. — Julian H.✈ (talk/files) 07:18, 18 October 2014 (UTC)
- Support Unlike Wilfredor, I wasn't disappointed by the quality at full size -- one can't expect razor sharpness at those kinds of distances. Downsized 75% to 14MP it is sharp. I think at Commons we can see educational value in daylight lighting. While commercial landscape photographers know that sunrise/sunset are special times for postcards and coffee table books, there is merit in seeing such a landscape as it is, rather than tinted by an orange sky or covered in snow. One niggle is that I don't think you've quite succeed in getting enough near foreground for that to work well (it just looks arbitrarily cropped). Consider a 3:1 ratio aspect of the top portion to concentrate on just the view rather than what is near one's feet. That crop has the benefit of the horizon aligning with the rule-of-thirds, for what that is worth. -- Colin (talk) 10:43, 18 October 2014 (UTC)
- Comment Thanks for the support, Colin. The purpose of the near crop is to show the way up to the peak through the gravel and that the pic is not taken from a plane. It is just enough not to distract from the view, thats at least my opinion. --Wolfgang Moroder (talk) 12:37, 18 October 2014 (UTC)
