•  Info Greetings from Norway again. It's Lyngenfjord in Troms, Norway, photographed early in a clear morning in 2011 June. As many times I've seen this fjord, not so often I've seen it in as clear weather as this. -- Ximonic (talk) 16:26, 16 June 2011 (UTC)

•  Support Great superwide panorama! If I had any remarks to add, it would be a little more contrast and saturation (my personal taste), as well as careful with shadow pushing in the foreground. But these are of little relevance in an otherwise fantastic picture! Hendric Stattmann (talk) 21:48, 16 June 2011 (UTC)

The new version is even better and addresses the small remarks I had in the original version. Strong support from my side! Hendric Stattmann (talk) 19:48, 23 June 2011 (UTC)

•  Oppose Looks unnatural, very grey in background, over-retouched. Disturbing foreground. This picture is going to be declined in the QIC page !! Funny...and interesting.--Jebulon (talk) 14:32, 19 June 2011 (UTC)

• I admit this picture has faced the HDR technique because otherwise the background would have blown up – or the foreground would be black. I don't really get what are people expecting from this landscape... I haven't desaturated the background compared to the original photographs, so I don't know how it's unnaturally grey. I increased the colors of the background a little yet I'm feeling Quite uncomfortable saturating things much. And the foreground: Unfortunately I didn't have the time to plant a nice garden on the slope so that's just what you'll have there on coasts in Norway. Sorry for the foreground. Featured or not, I'm sure this picture deserves it what ever there comes. --Ximonic (talk) 15:08, 19 June 2011 (UTC)

• O'h and, please revert the latest if has it gotten worse. --Ximonic (talk) 15:11, 19 June 2011 (UTC)

•  Oppose Weird colors and poor contrast to me. I don't like the composition either, with the tree cluttering the background on the right side. - Benh (talk) 17:14, 19 June 2011 (UTC)
•  Oppose Unnatural contrast, weird colours. --Daniel Baránek (talk) 21:11, 19 June 2011 (UTC)
•  Oppose as Jebulon. W.S. 06:57, 20 June 2011 (UTC)
•  Comment &  Done Ok, so I'm going to revert it to a not so contrasted stage. --Ximonic (talk) 11:39, 20 June 2011 (UTC)
•  Done I think, I'm getting to the point where I'm not going to go any further. The latest update has the most natural colors I can possibly get to it. The colors have been slavishly assessed to be what they were in the original non-HDR photographs. I also studied the differents of lights in the original shots and tried to do my best to imitate them (also being careful to not to under- or overexpose the extremities. From now on I'm going to focus on other pictures – I have had it with this **** picture in this **** photoshop :D . Have a nice day! --Ximonic (talk) 14:19, 20 June 2011 (UTC)
