• Linear perspective of power lines during Blue Hour. All by me -- PumpkinSky talk 14:12, 14 December 2017 (UTC)
•  Support -- PumpkinSky talk 14:12, 14 December 2017 (UTC)
•  Neutral This is a composition with nice symmetries. However it's not very colourful and I wish some of the plants I see weren't motion-blurred (although there aren't many). I think the image would work well in B&W, there are interesting contrasts and structures. --Basotxerri (talk) 17:08, 14 December 2017 (UTC)
  • I'll look into the B&W. The colors are what comes with mid-December and the wind was blowing hard. PumpkinSky talk 17:43, 14 December 2017 (UTC)
• Made this crop match the B&W one. PumpkinSky talk 11:37, 15 December 2017 (UTC)
•  Support I prefer this version, with its reds, greens and the yellow of the grass. Anyway, I agree with you that the B&W version highlights better the structure of the transmission towers. --Harlock81 (talk) 23:57, 15 December 2017 (UTC)
•  Support I find the color version as attractive as the B&W one. -- Johann Jaritz (talk) 03:20, 16 December 2017 (UTC)

Alternative

Here is a black and white alternative as suggested by Basotxerri. PumpkinSky talk 23:49, 14 December 2017 (UTC)

•  Support PumpkinSky talk 01:19, 15 December 2017 (UTC)
•  Comment - I like this better as a black & white picture, but I think I'd like the photo better if you cropped out the blurry foreground, or at least most of it. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 02:18, 15 December 2017 (UTC)
  • @Ikan Kekek: - I cropped the B&W one where I thought it looked best. On the color one I did less of a crop and adjusted blacks and whites. PumpkinSky talk 02:56, 15 December 2017 (UTC)

•  Support --XRay ^talk 17:38, 15 December 2017 (UTC)
•  Support Looks nice now! --Basotxerri (talk) 18:13, 15 December 2017 (UTC)
•  Support --Agnes Monkelbaan (talk) 18:14, 15 December 2017 (UTC)
•  Support I do like this much better; it's an excellent demonstration of how going mono can improve an image. Although I would have cropped in at the sides more. Daniel Case (talk) 19:03, 15 December 2017 (UTC)
•  Support --Famberhorst (talk) 06:12, 16 December 2017 (UTC)
