  • Oppose original The image quality is there, but I dislike the composition. I would expect an image featuring water pollution to give slightly more context to the debris. Jujutacular (talk) 21:05, 22 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
    • I added an alternative. Is that what you mean by more context? Tomer T (talk) 08:05, 24 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
      • That is better, although it still doesn't seem quite there for me. I can't really put my finger on what would make it better though, so I abstain on the alt. Jujutacular (talk) 14:31, 26 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support High quality and much EV.Alborzagros (talk) 13:33, 23 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak oppose agree with Jujutacular that more context would add to the EV. Pine 05:15, 24 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support alt: it could provide more context that that, but that would be a fundamentally different picture: the two could co-exist. This one tells us quite a lot about the nature and volume of water pollution on Lake Maracaibo, which, given what it shows must be a central part of an article on the lake.Grandiose (me, talk, contribs) 14:17, 26 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak Support Alt better context, though more would be even better. Focus is slightly off. --WingtipvorteX PTT 19:53, 26 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose: The view feels too arbitrary in both. Would be improved with a wider angle of view or a larger panorama, catching more of the shoreline, a longer length of debris, and the bank, so that it's a composition instead of a snapshot. Julia\talk 19:24, 29 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
