  •  Comment You find the geocoordinates in the description page and also the corresponding link to openstreetmap and google earth. Using this, you will see, the the pond is 16m long. --Llez (talk) 03:41, 27 April 2019 (UTC)
•  Comment Nice subject, distracting background. I think a different composition without the sea would have made a better photo -- Basile Morin (talk) 00:31, 27 April 2019 (UTC)
  •  Comment I don't think so. Salies are near the sea, why not showing the sea. In my opinion it adds a further colour - blue - to black, white and orange. In addition, if you cut the upper part (please ceck the horizontales), you would have too less space above the orange pond and in addition you would cut off most of the other ponds (which are all whitish). So you would also loose the information, that the orange colour is a special case --Llez (talk) 03:51, 27 April 2019 (UTC)

• Aesthetically, it doesn't work (to me). You seem to say "important background as it's more educative", but this blue corner is ugly in my view. Depends on the purpose of course. Maybe for the children at school this sea is good, but for a poster in a living room, it's not okay in my opinion. And I'm not suggesting a better crop, I'm saying "a different composition without the sea would have made a better photo", it means a different angle (when shooting). I know you can't cut this part now. But the composition is not successful : space is wrong, too small, too tiny sea, not an elegant compo. Maybe more water would have worked, not sure, as it looks cluttered -- Basile Morin (talk) 04:38, 27 April 2019 (UTC)

Yes, if possible, I would add more sea, not less. Regards, Yann (talk) 05:12, 27 April 2019 (UTC)
