  • Support as nominator --Noodle snacks (talk) 11:31, 12 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support, but Weak until sky fixed Nice, detailed. Question: Have you "burned in" the sky upper right - feels a bit like it, I'd like to imagine the right half of the sky as less gray... --Janke | Talk 12:51, 12 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    • Haven't done any burning really, the dark branches top right are the result of a foreground tree with the light behind. The clouds on that side were actually darker (it rained not that long afterwards) Noodle snacks (talk) 00:32, 13 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
      • If you didn't do any burning, how come it looks like there's a weak halo around the trees, both left & right? Oh, you said "really"... ;-) --Janke | Talk 12:48, 13 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak Support I like the image although the sky looks a little unnatural (I have some curiosity with Janke). Could you also fix the tilt?--Caspian blue 20:06, 12 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    The bridge still looks tilted to me, especially for the shadow over the water.--Caspian blue 14:38, 15 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak Support Nice scene and detail, but the sky just looks too unnatural for the foreground... --Fir0002 04:08, 13 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support Good EV and lovely mood. Reminds me of the weather last week in Dar :) Muhammad(talk) 16:07, 13 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose Image is off level by about half a degree. No other complaints about this otherwise beautiful scene. Wronkiew (talk) 06:13, 15 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    • I disagree, and if it really is then its easy to rotate, try looking at the verticals on the bridge. The horizontals are misleading there since it is closer on the right hand side. Noodle snacks (talk) 06:25, 15 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
      My analysis was done using only verticals. The roll is between 0.2 and 0.6 degrees. There is some uncertainty because I don't have the raw image(s) that it was created from. I agree that it should be easy to fix. Wronkiew (talk) 06:35, 15 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
      • I did level my tripod, but leveled again post raw. Do you think you could rotate and upload an edit? That would ensure it is right. Noodle snacks (talk) 07:38, 15 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
        Done, and support. Feel free to revert if you don't like my edit. Wronkiew (talk) 22:35, 15 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
        We generally upload modified versions as separate images and insert them into the nomination labelled as 'edits'. It allows voters to compare the different versions. With you having overwritten the original, it makes it hard to compare (and in general - not just at FPC - it's considered poor form to overwrite another user's photo unless there's a very good reason). --jjron (talk) 13:00, 17 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
        Noodle snacks, what do you think? I am happy to revert my edit and create a new image at commons. Wronkiew (talk) 17:13, 17 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
        Probably minor enough not to worry about fixing it in this case, but in future I'd upload a second image. Noodle snacks (talk) 21:41, 17 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
        Thank you, I'll leave the edit but next time I'll create a new file. Wronkiew (talk) 05:55, 18 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
