Original – Bowman Creek looking downstream from Keelersburg Road
Reason
Bowman Creek is a 26-mile (42 km) long tributary of the Susquehanna River in Wyoming and Luzerne Counties, Pennsylvania. It is fortunate enough to have high water quality and to be a regionally famous trout stream. This particular picture shows the creek looking downstream from Keelersburg Road, the last road crossing before the creek joins the Susquehanna River, at river mile 0.7 (river kilometer 1.1). It's got the highest combination of technical value and prettiness of any of the 30 or so pictures of Bowman Creek on Commons.

  • Oppose as above, but it also looks like it's at a really odd angle - the river around the corner looks bizarrely going uphill despite the water running away from the camera... I would expect the water to be pooling at the left hand side of the bend based on this angle... gazhiley 21:43, 14 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose It's a decent and worthwhile photo in its own right, but per the above, it's not of feature picture quality. Fredlyfish4 (talk) 05:11, 16 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
