•  Info All by Cephas -- Cephas (talk) 22:35, 7 September 2012 (UTC)
•  Support -- Cephas (talk) 22:35, 7 September 2012 (UTC)
•  Neutral I don't want to oppose you again ;-) and it caught my eyes. But:

Hi Benh. It's find to oppose – FP's are not an ultimate goal to me.

1. I would try another crop and get rid of that foreground, It's too small to add a context IMO, and a symmetric composition might serve the picture better,

Foreground stuff and non-symmetric composition is often considered a standard for scenic pictures.

1. I'm a bit sad about that factory on the left side which ruins the "wild" feeling of the place,

I know, but I find that deleting a building is not like deleting a trivial branch.

1. Looks like NR smeared details away,
2. I would look at the apparent tilt (to the left) issue,
3. that's all folks!

Sorry for being a bit picky ;) - Benh (talk) 22:57, 7 September 2012 (UTC)

1. Forgot the many white stains on the water... what are they? - Benh (talk) 22:58, 7 September 2012 (UTC)

I used a polarizing filter which tend to darken the sky (and water) unequally.

I will see what others might say and will work out an alternate version accordingly. --Cephas (talk) 14:50, 8 September 2012 (UTC)

•  Neutral I would love to support as this is a beautiful picture, but I agree with the suggestions by Benh. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 16:25, 8 September 2012 (UTC)

Alternative

•  Info Here it is with some urbanization work, crop and tilt correction done. This is about the most I can do. --Cephas (talk) 23:47, 8 September 2012 (UTC)
•  Support (weak). The image is a bit soft and there's some minor CA on the white cross on the left, but otherwise good. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 05:32, 9 September 2012 (UTC)
•  Comment I didn't ask the factory to be cloned out, just said that I was sad about it being there... I'm also against manipulations which just alter reality. White stains are also still there, and I was wondering what they are (I did not talk about the white to blue gradient) - Benh (talk) 12:35, 10 September 2012 (UTC)

Confirmed results:

Result: 1 support, 0 oppose, 2 neutral → not featured. /George Chernilevsky ^talk 04:49, 17 September 2012 (UTC)
