Oppose FP candidate spam by nominator --Romwriter (talk) 09:07, 29 August 2008 (UTC)
Comment he's just a bit over-enthusiastic as it is his first time here. he won't spam again. anyway spam is not a criteria for if it is good or not. --SuperJew (talk) 11:09, 29 August 2008 (UTC)
Support This one is nice, no matters how many others were posted here. --Aktron (talk) 11:01, 29 August 2008 (UTC)
Support But give it a break with the hitting the wall and seeing what sticks routine. --Dori - Talk 12:12, 29 August 2008 (UTC)
Oppose No wow. Lycaon (talk) 18:15, 30 August 2008 (UTC)
Oppose the pic has no dynamic and thus no wow. You should try panning shot next time. They wheels look here as if the bike wouldnt drive at all. --AngMoKio (talk) 16:09, 31 August 2008 (UTC)
Question Would it be better if the sand was not shot up at all? I was just wondering, because I have many like that, but I thought that those had no "wow". It is the moving sand that adds movement to the picture, giving it character. --Ltz Raptor (talk) 20:13, 31 August 2008 (UTC)
- No the sand is ok. But especially the wheels look as if the vehicle didn't move at all. It also adds dynamic if the background is not sharp but has a motion blur. You can get all that with panning shots. It takes some time to learn it, but once you have a feeling for it, it is really fun. --AngMoKio (talk) 07:27, 1 September 2008 (UTC)

Support It looks much better now. Thanks, Base64! -- Ltz Raptor (talk) 06:56, 31 August 2008 (UTC)
Oppose Very much oversaturation, that's not what misty Swakopmund looks like!. Lycaon (talk) 11:34, 31 August 2008 (UTC)
Question Have you ever been to Swakopmund? By commenting on how "misty" Swakopmund is, is you reference this or this? I am asking this, because the first image is not a good representation of the sand at Swaknopmund. --Ltz Raptor (talk) 20:25, 31 August 2008 (UTC)
- That's what thought too. I searched the images of deserts in google, here. And also the category in Wikicommons. --Base64 (talk) 04:02, 1 September 2008 (UTC)
- The dunes around Swakopmund are typically shrouded in mist often exacerbated by sand storms. And yes I've been there. Lycaon (talk) 07:19, 6 September 2008 (UTC)

- Are you refering to the saturation of the sands or the saturation of the entire image? --Base64 (talk) 13:53, 31 August 2008 (UTC)
- Or what specific channel of saturation you are talking about. Everything could be fixed, can you provide some samples of Namib Desert, or even fix this image by yourself? Thanks--Base64 (talk) 14:03, 31 August 2008 (UTC)
