- Support - Nice crisp image. Coat of Many Colours (talk) 11:25, 18 July 2014 (UTC)
- Oppose Oversharpened, note halos around branches. Strong chromatic aberration in trees. Not much EV either... --Janke | Talk 16:31, 18 July 2014 (UTC)
- Oppose. Agree with Janke. EV is poor as you can hardly see anything except the silhouette of the trees and the reflection of the sky in the water. All I can tell from the image is that the lake has got a narrow section in the middle. Lighting needs to be much better IMO. Ðiliff «» (Talk) 14:35, 20 July 2014 (UTC)
- Support Not every picture in WP has to be a daytime scene. This picture conveys the silence of the wilderness. CorinneSD (talk) 21:44, 20 July 2014 (UTC)
- I do agree that not every picture on WP has to be a daytime scene, but they do have to be encyclopaedic, and EV is crucially important for FPC. What can you learn from a photo like this? It could be almost anywhere in the world that happens to have pine trees and mountains. Ðiliff «» (Talk) 01:00, 21 July 2014 (UTC)
- Oppose Nice picture, but the silhouetting of the trees makes it hard to see what this area looks like. Not encyclopedic unless it's taken during the day. Mattximus (talk) 22:14, 22 July 2014 (UTC)
