  • It's a beautiful shot of a beautiful place. One small concern is that Moraine lake is famous for the contrast between the greeny turquoise blue of its waters and the bluer blue of the sky. Here that's only barely visible around the margins of the lake, with the lake itself dominated by the same colors as the background. It's also a bit low-res by current standards and there's some odd blurring on the trees at the back side of the lake and purple chromatic aberration on the ridge above them. File:1 moraine lake pano 2019.jpg (the lead image of Moraine Lake) is technically better of the same place despite its noise. —David Eppstein (talk) 06:10, 2 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
