Comment Please upload the full resolution. The smaller resolution looks downsampled and unsharp. --XRay 💬 14:35, 12 September 2022 (UTC)- Comment OK. Full-size uploaded, but for this scene, some reduction in resolution is not critical, I think. At least when viewed from a practical point of view - for example, for printing.

Oppose Maybe not, but please consider that this is Featured Picture Candidates, where we try to determine which photos are the greatest on the site. This photo is a beautiful sunset, but sunsets are often beautiful, and I submit that this photo is not exceptional. But had it been larger and sharper, it might have been, as the composition is very good to my eyes. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 04:47, 13 September 2022 (UTC)
- OK, maybe this photo is not suitable for featured images. But, just for information, it's not sunset, at this time, at this latitude (2 degrees below the Arctic Circle), sunset occurs a couple of hours later than the time of the picture. So it's like a cloudy day in summer around 5-6 pm at mid-latitudes. Vsatinet (talk) 14:46, 13 September 2022 (UTC)
- Oppose per Ikan ... we have a lot of photos of scenes like this (trust me; I've categorized more than enough of them) and as a golden-hour type image of the sun through clouds reflecting on water this just does not stand out. As I have said before, if you nominate an image of a sunset for FP either it better have more to it than the sunset (like Cart's image below, which at this point seems likely to pass) or make us feel like we've never seen a sunset before. Or, even better, both. Daniel Case (talk) 18:27, 14 September 2022 (UTC)
