Anticosti Island


From the Anticosti Island page. I think photo would be a great featured picture. Its deep blacks mixed with the almost electric blue of the water and the light green of the island are very eye-pleasing and the lines created by the waves, the island itself and the shore give the photo a very interesting dynamic.

 * Oppose. Landsat covers the entire planet with imagery similar to this.  There's nothing in the proposal that convinces me that this particular scene is special compared to all the others.  Moreover, the image is significantly lower resolution than Landsat 7's full resolution; a lot of detail is lost. --Davepape 01:04, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Oppose per Davepape, nothing special. —Keenan Pepper 03:28, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
