Good quality picture. Beautiful view to dark hills of Rio de Janeiro on horizon and Guanabara Bay under the afternoon Sun fighting its way through the clouds.

  • Oppose - Was added to an article image gallery, not to the mainspace just seven days ago. As such, it has zero EV in illustrating the article in question. Further, the technical quality is atrocious. It was taken by a cell phone camera (and not a good one) and it shows. Serious image noise, noticeable tilt, poor white balance, and what I think is uncorrected radial distortion at the edges... and all for an uninspiring composition of some interesting terrain seen from too great a distance. The photo is more sky than anything else. -- Veggies (talk) 05:41, 19 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Oppose per above. Not exactly atrocious, that's a too strong word, simply just a mediocre, grainy snapshot, little or no EV. Janke | Talk 11:03, 19 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
