Info: petrified dune evolved from a Jurassic desert and composed of the Aztec Sandstone. Pensive geology professor for scale. All by -- The Cosmonaut (talk) 16:52, 1 February 2020 (UTC)

Weak support Nothing much at thumb but impressive at full scale. A bit too much noise reduction (could be dialed back) but the file is big so I won't be picky. I see that you took El Grafo's advice and kept one geologist handy for scale. --Cart (talk) 17:57, 1 February 2020 (UTC)
Oppose Sorry but the noise reduction is too much for me. It's an interesting subject but the details are just too smudgy at full size; I also find it possibly a bit underexposed. A better process from RAW might convince me to support. Cmao20 (talk) 18:32, 1 February 2020 (UTC)

Oppose - Striking motif for sure, but I can't accept concentric posterization halos in the sky above it. I would have voted to decline it on QIC, too. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 06:41, 2 February 2020 (UTC)
Oppose Interesting subject (although I'm not 100% sold on the composition), but indeed the technical issues (looks like too much denoising / sharpening) make this not an FP for me. --Domob (talk) 09:21, 2 February 2020 (UTC)

Weak oppose Yes, the bad ridgeline from the denoising is not such a large part of the image ... until you look at the portion in shadow, where it's too far gone at present to forgive. Daniel Case (talk) 18:33, 3 February 2020 (UTC)
Oppose per Ikan -- Karelj (talk) 21:26, 5 February 2020 (UTC)
