Support -- Thennicke (talk) 03:26, 26 December 2016 (UTC)- Support I'd support this even without the tower. lNeverCry 03:52, 26 December 2016 (UTC)
- Support Per INC. -- Johann Jaritz (talk) 05:49, 26 December 2016 (UTC)
- Support Jee 06:17, 26 December 2016 (UTC)
- Support - Very high-quality and serene. I might prefer to see the treetops on the left, but I won't decline to give a supporting vote based on that difference. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 07:17, 26 December 2016 (UTC)
- Thank you for your praise Ikan. I agree about the treetops, it would have helped the composition even more - still learning how to take the perfect photograph! :) -- Thennicke (talk) 08:22, 26 December 2016 (UTC)
- Support --Martin Falbisoner (talk) 09:53, 26 December 2016 (UTC)
- Support Nice. This is what we refer to as "a well-manicured park". :) A geo tag would be appreciated though. --cart-Talk 11:14, 26 December 2016 (UTC)
Done -- Thennicke (talk) 13:15, 26 December 2016 (UTC)

Oppose Not a particularly remarkable scene from an urban park, with flat midday lighting. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 00:40, 27 December 2016 (UTC)- Oppose as per KoH. In short, no wow. Specially I find the grass unattractive. Sorry. Yann (talk) 16:53, 27 December 2016 (UTC)
- Oppose I disagree with my colleague because this is for me remarkable composition/scene, however the color don't work for me, especialy the color of the grass. Christian Ferrer (talk) 19:47, 27 December 2016 (UTC)
Question Christian Ferrer Would better processing fix the issue, or is it an issue with the scene itself (such as the dead patch on the left)? I can try reprocessing the image if needed -- Thennicke (talk) 22:55, 27 December 2016 (UTC)
- No it is well processed, it is because the grass is near dead.... I don't think that you can do anything else. Christian Ferrer (talk) 06:52, 28 December 2016 (UTC)
- Ahh, fair enough. Canberra is a very dry windy city and I guess the grass reflects that. I'll leave the nomination up though -- Thennicke (talk) 07:10, 28 December 2016 (UTC)
- Oppose Per Christian. Color just seems washed out to me. Daniel Case (talk) 00:35, 28 December 2016 (UTC)
- Info I have added a version with less washed-out colours. Let me know if I've overdone it -- Thennicke (talk) 06:59, 28 December 2016 (UTC)
Comment - Always ping everyone who's voted or commented when you edit a photo that's submitted to FPC. For my part, I'm fine with either version, but it's up to you to decide which one most closely resembles what you saw. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 09:26, 28 December 2016 (UTC)
- Oppose I like the composition (though I'd likely crop a bit tighter at the bottom) and I'm sure there is potential in this place for FPC. But as others already pointed out the timing wasn't ideal. I don't think this is something that can be "fixed" in post - only by coming back on a "better" day. (also, in the current version, the blue of the water looks a bit too punchy for me) --El Grafo (talk) 11:29, 28 December 2016 (UTC)
- Oppose I think a more wider (pano) view will be better for this kind of a park scenery. --Alchemist-hp (talk) 19:50, 30 December 2016 (UTC)
I withdraw my nomination -- Thennicke (talk) 01:50, 31 December 2016 (UTC)
