 * Comment the yacht at the bottom is cut in half. Overall, I think that an aerial perspective of a yacht race is a very good idea but currently the article only mentions yacht racing in one sentence and thus the EV may be lacking. Considering that "the annual Newport to Ensenada International Yacht Race is the largest sailboat race in the world", I would hope that the article has at least a few more sentences discussing that. Also, the image size may just be a tad too small (which is surprising, since the Nikon D90 should have no shortage of pixels). If it has been downsampled, I would appreciate if you could upload the original size since image guidelines frown upon downsampling pictures. dllu (t,c) 18:49, 4 April 2013 (UTC)
 * I have the original NEF file and can export that in a higher res if you still would like to see it..--WPPilot 18:43, 8 April 2013 (UTC)(talk)
 * Oppose per above, and the colors seem dull. --Pine✉ 23:36, 5 April 2013 (UTC)
