From June 2007
Note: From June 2007 images are changed randomly from a pool of selected images, rather than being manually updated. The current pool of images used can be found here. There is a need to expand the number of images in the pool, so please note your ideas below.

Incineration fire
I suggest one of my own contributions for the selected pics: Movinggrate.jpg from the incineration article. Nice vivid flames from household waste inside an incinerator. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Claush66 (talk • contribs) 22:06, 25 November 2007 (UTC)

June 2010

 * I suggest File:Wind Turbines and Power Lines, East Sussex, England - April 2009.jpg to be added to the pool. --Elekhh (talk) 00:40, 7 June 2010 (UTC)

Selected picture Nomination
File:Tuticorin Thermal Power Station at Night.jpg File:Tuticorin Thermal Power Station at Night 1.jpg Perumalism  Chat  09:50, 15 September 2013 (UTC)
 * File:Tuticorin Thermal Power Station at Night 1.jpg - I love this one. The other is ok, but this one is outstanding. I'd probably be tempted to crop it just a little bit, like: File:Tuticorin Thermal Power Station at Night 1 crop.jpg, just to get rid of some of the "smudginess" in the foreground, and increase the power station proportionally, but I love the pic.
 * It's a shame that retouching it like: File:Tuticorin Thermal Power Station at Night 1 crop retouch.jpg would be cheating...  Begoon &thinsp; talk  04:30, 16 September 2013 (UTC)
