Interesting overhead shot of the fjords of Greenland. Make sure to look at the bottommost section of coastline. Also see the Image page for further observations.

  • I like it, but all the action is in the center, where the glacial tongues end and the land and sea are visisble. There is a lot of white on the left side that I don't think helps. If it were up to me I would keep the middle and middle right and crop out the rest. Jeeb 19:01, 7 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]
    • Here's a 2nd version that rotates and crops. — BRIAN0918 • 2005-11-7 19:33
  • Comment I think there are other images at the Greenland article (e.g. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Sermeqkujadtlek.jpg) that give one a better feel for the place than this one, even with your edits; also, the image seems to be huge and slow to load, at least for me.

    • We like them to be huge! Slow is probably due to wikimedia servers being slow these days. Enochlau 12:46, 10 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support both versions. Raven4x4x 08:40, 17 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Promoted Image:Greenland.A2003233.1340.250m.jpg I'll go with the cropped version, although it was very close. If anyone has a problem with it feel free to tell me. Raven4x4x 08:59, 20 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]
