- Comment Dust spot near the upper right corner. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 23:16, 3 October 2022 (UTC)
- Comment @Ikan Kekek: I am surprised how you could identify such a tiny spot in such a large photo. Thank you so much for your valuable correction. I hope it's better now. I have also tried fixing a bit of the tilt. --Satdeep Gill (talk) 02:56, 4 October 2022 (UTC)
- Support You're welcome. I see 3 more dust spots near the upper left corner. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 06:33, 4 October 2022 (UTC)
- Comment Done Thank you so much for all the support. --Satdeep Gill (talk) 11:29, 4 October 2022 (UTC)
Support per Cmao20.Please fix the remaining dust spots mentioned by Ikan. :–) (Tip: It’s easier to find dust spots if you zoom to the full size of the image (1:1, 1 pixel of the photo = 1 pixel of the screen) and then move the photo slowly from left to right (or right to left) over the screen. It can also help not to focus your eyes directly on the sky but to look slightly besides the screen. Both techniques help me a lot to find dust spots etc. This has something to do with the anatomy and functionality of our eyes which perceive brightness/darkness contrasts and movements better in the border regions than in the centre of the field of view …) --Aristeas (talk) 09:33, 4 October 2022 (UTC)
- Comment Thank you. This is very helpful. I was able to identify one more dust spot towards the towards the upper right corner and fixed it. --Satdeep Gill (talk) 11:29, 4 October 2022 (UTC)
- Comment Thank you! --Aristeas (talk) 13:42, 4 October 2022 (UTC)
- Oppose Changed to oppose in order to get the other version promoted (which I prefer) – I hope this is allowed?! --Aristeas (talk) 05:28, 12 October 2022 (UTC)

- Oppose I know I'm in a different boat to everyone else here, but the salience should be on the temple and the other archeological sites. Instead, the first thing that my eyes are drawn to are the palm trees that surround and the rather distracting reflection. Not an FP, sorry. --SHB2000 (talk) 10:03, 4 October 2022 (UTC)
- Oppose Image consists mostly of empty sky. —kallerna (talk) 11:54, 4 October 2022 (UTC)

- Comment Leaning to the left.--Ermell (talk) 21:54, 5 October 2022 (UTC)
- @Ermell Done tilt fixed. -- Satdeep Gill (talk) 11:38, 10 October 2022 (UTC)
- Oppose per others. If I didn't know what this was, I'd have no doubt saying it was a good photo of an unremarkable building. I like clouds, blue sky and water reflections, and I've seen a lot better at lower technical quality. QI, yes, but FP, no. Daniel Case (talk) 23:15, 5 October 2022 (UTC)
Oppose< Tilted. Building leaning to the left-- Basile Morin (talk) 14:17, 9 October 2022 (UTC)- @Basile Morin Done tilt fixed. -- Satdeep Gill (talk) 11:37, 10 October 2022 (UTC)
- Thanks -- Basile Morin (talk) 13:47, 10 October 2022 (UTC)
- Comment Too much empty sky and water, should be cropped to a wide aspect ratio. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 00:31, 10 October 2022 (UTC)
- @King of Hearts Done check the alternative below. -- Satdeep Gill (talk) 11:50, 10 October 2022 (UTC)

Alternative
[edit]- Support --Satdeep Gill (talk) 11:48, 10 October 2022 (UTC)
- Comment A bit more space below the reflection, maybe? And more light would be nice, because it seems slightly underexposed, now. -- Basile Morin (talk) 13:47, 10 October 2022 (UTC)
- +1 the cloud should not be cut off. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 17:11, 10 October 2022 (UTC)
- @Basile Morin, @King of Hearts Done I have updated this version per your suggestions.-- Satdeep Gill (talk) 03:23, 11 October 2022 (UTC)
- +1 the cloud should not be cut off. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 17:11, 10 October 2022 (UTC)
- Support Fine now, in my view. As the end of the voting period is tomorrow, probably it's worth notifying everybody before the other version is promoted -- Basile Morin (talk) 03:32, 11 October 2022 (UTC)
- Yes. That's a great idea. Let me ping everyone here. @Terragio67, @Kritzolina, @Cmao20, @Aristeas, @SHB2000, @Kallerna, @Karelj, @Ermell, @Daniel Case; I would like to bring this alternative to your attention as tomorrow, 12th October is the last date before the voting ends on this nomination. Thank you for your consideration in advance. -- Satdeep Gill (talk) 08:01, 11 October 2022 (UTC)

- Support -- Karelj (talk) 08:06, 11 October 2022 (UTC)
- Neutral I'm undecided on this. The salience is still on the palm trees, but the photo does look nice. --SHB2000 (talk) 09:08, 11 October 2022 (UTC)
- Support better. --Aristeas (talk) 13:47, 11 October 2022 (UTC)
