 * Support as nominator --Drblitzz (talk) 04:52, 21 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment Fixed articles and category. Makeemlighter (talk) 07:23, 21 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment: Currently, this image only appears in image galleries in the articles, and so it is not easy to judge its encyclopedic value. J Milburn (talk) 07:50, 21 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment Somebody made it the main image; cheers buddy!. Drblitzz (talk) 03:49, 22 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment Gorgeous, but is it a little over-saturated, maybe? Also, I don't see why this image couldn't replace the much lower-quality lead image in Black Tusk. Adam Cuerden (talk) 10:59, 21 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment The greens may look a little bright, but the trees and meadows get bright green in the spring; after all, it is a temperate rainforest. Drblitzz (talk) 03:49, 22 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Support then. Adam Cuerden (talk) 11:29, 23 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Support as the lead image in Black Tusk. Doesn't seem over saturated to me (going on my real-world experience); but, I may just see life in Technicolor. Cowtowner (talk) 16:48, 21 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Strong support Great EV. The artist nailed the composition and angle. Gut Monk (talk) 00:46, 22 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment The caption appeared very screwed up-it seems the original links had only been given one bracket instead of two around them.I've fixed that now.Lemon martini (talk) 14:24, 22 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Actually you accidentally removed it altogether. Fixed now. :) Chick Bowen 14:59, 22 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Support as lead image in Black Tusk article. Good composition and EV, tolerable softness towards right. I'm curious - does anyone know why there is a large group of dead trees standing on the slopes above the lake at lower right? --Avenue (talk) 15:24, 22 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Oppose Lighting problems (seems washed-out), chromatic aberration, and general lack of sharpness. And is the tilt correct?  Spencer T♦ C 03:33, 23 August 2010 (UTC)
 *  Weak Support'. Great image, but there's a small problem with saturation I think apparently, according to the discussion above there is not :) Res Mar 13:20, 23 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Strong Support as a fan of Canadian volcanism.  Volcano guy  18:42, 23 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Support I stopped. I stared. I clicked. And I learned too. Nice quality picture. Greg L (talk) 22:23, 23 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Oppose Weird picture, doesn't strike me as natural: The snow indicates cold yet grass is vivid green, the immediate foliage line then dark stone, background mountains don't seem to match... -- I'ḏ ♥  One  07:45, 28 August 2010 (UTC)
 * It is 100% natural. The reason there is snow on the mountains and grass at Black Tusk is partly because the areas where is grass is lower in elevation. In lower elevated areas it is warmer and therefore more plants can grow. This photo was basically taken on the rim of the valley Black Tusk and the grass lies in.

 * Seriously. An all-natural photo that appears to have a weird, unnatural affect about it seems like more of reason to vote “support”. Greg L (talk) 18:14, 29 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Neutral. Maybe some day I'll see if this strange, over-saturated landscape is real. -- I'ḏ ♥  One  02:07, 30 August 2010 (UTC)
