  •  Oppose - I get that this has documentary value, but as a picture, I don't find it interesting to look at, as I don't find that anything really helps my eyes move around it enough, especially in the right half+ of the picture frame. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 19:41, 5 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    •  Comment Ok: it's not important. The center of Funchal is the picture and around is a burned area. No problem, you're special. Qualiuty of the picture is poor? Or not?--Lmbuga (talk) 19:46, 5 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
      • The quality (focus, etc.) is fine. It's the composition that I am criticizing. This is not QIC, where the good quality by itself would be amply sufficient. And this is not about me and whether I'm "special", so don't get all huffy and personal. As you see, I'm happy to vote for photos when I think they merit a feature. I am not going to start voting to feature every photo, just because some photographers get personally insulted and lash out whenever anyone opposes any feature. Have a nice day, and keep in mind the example of Livio. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 19:59, 5 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Regretful oppose Sorry, but I have to agree with Ikan here. It's a good panorama of a really tragic event, but there is nothing in the image that makes it more than that, no line, light, feature or whatever it is that makes a QI become a FP. It would be better suited for an VI of the fire or a FP on one of the Wikis. Also why is it necessary to shout out the 'Info' at the beginning with big bold letters? I think all of us here are intelligent enough to read facts and info about a picture without a war-sized headline. I understand that this is a recent event and that this may be emotional for some editors, even so, we judge the images as they are here. cart-Talk 20:16, 5 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Oppose per others. Not a bad pic yet no outstanding photographic work. --Kreuzschnabel 20:48, 5 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Oppose Boring composition, and the areas of interest look like water color painting (which I guess comes from aggressive NR), ruining intent of author to highlight them. - Benh (talk) 17:39, 6 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Comment I think that I understood you, Benh. (Sorry, poor English) But the water color painting is due to the fog of the island and due to avoid the fog and the little ("less" or "few") clarity (sorry, I can't say what I want and I think that it's not important). Thanks for your review. I think it's better this way: The fog is not pleasant--Lmbuga (talk) 14:25, 7 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  •  I withdraw my nomination. Sorry, Better composition is impossible if you can't sail or fly--Lmbuga (talk) 14:25, 7 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    • (es): Se podría hacer una foto mejor compuesta, sin volar ni navegar, si yo fuese en un transatlántico. Yo anduve el puerto completo (varios km), buscando la manera de tener la mejor perspectiva y no pude tenerla mejor porque todo el puerto de los transatlánticos está vallado. El único punto libre es este. Sí, lo entiendo, es cierto: para hacer FPs hay que tener dinero (buena cámara, posibilidades...), además de amigos como sois vosotros--Lmbuga (talk) 14:36, 7 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
