  • Oppose. This is not Tsunami. This is Okinami(??). Okinami is offshore wave.--Shin-? T 07:14, 19 Jan 2005 (UTC)
    • This seems to me more like a reason to improve the caption and image description than to oppose the image. Would you still oppose with the description changed? -- Infrogmation 03:53, 22 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Discussion:

  • What happened? There are two versions of the image now and not enough information about which one is a more accurate representation of the original print. I'll try to look for this image in the LoC prints collection -- they tend to produce large format (4"×5" or larger) color slides under Tungsten light but with Kodak color separation guides in the picture. That way one can restore the colors of the print fairly well. Without color guides, it's mostly guesswork. --MarkSweep 19:21, 17 Jan 2005 (UTC)
    • The earlier supports were all when only the top of the two images were here. -- Infrogmation 03:53, 22 Jan 2005 (UTC)
