Nanga Parbat

 * Reason:I think this should be an FP as it is fairly high resolution for its age (6 years) and a technically difficult shot due to the trek. It has high EV and provides an interesting contrast between the green grass, grey stone, and white snow. Crisp and clear.

 * Question If I'm seeing this right, there is a hill in the foreground that blocks the view of the mountain. Why couldn't this photo have been taken from the top of that hill to give a clearer view of the mountain? Pinetalk 21:23, 1 September 2011 (UTC)
 * I don't know. Perhaps it was off the trail; I'm assuming when climbing at certain heights people avoid any unnecessary dangers. Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:36, 1 September 2011 (UTC)


 * Oppose with that hill in the foreground, this photo doesn't impress me the way that many of the existing panorama FPs do. Pinetalk 07:05, 2 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Support I like having the foreground there - it tells me stuff about the lower altitude habitat and I don't find it distracting. Going significantly off trail is often frowned upon in such wilderness areas, a lot of alpine vegetation is quite vulnerable to trampling. JJ Harrison (talk) 09:01, 2 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Support Great photo of an impressive vista. In my opinion it meets all of the Featured picture criteria. TehGrauniad (talk) 11:05, 8 September 2011 (UTC)
