 * Support as nominator --Dusty777 (talk) 19:44, 26 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Nice picture, but note this thematically similar shot, which is already featured. Chick Bowen 20:54, 26 November 2011 (UTC)
 * The picture you provided is not a picture of the Golden Gate Bridge, it just happened to be in the picture while the photographer was taking pictures of the suns rays (according to the description of the photo). If you will also note, the picture does not appear on Golden Gate Bridge.


 * The two pictures are not on the same theme as one is a picture of fog in San Francisco while the other, is a picture of the Golden Gate Bridge through fog. Dusty777 (talk) 20:12, 28 November 2011 (UTC)
 * How is it better than this in that regard ? --Elekhh (talk) 15:07, 29 November 2011 (UTC)
 * You are right, and with the nominator permission I hope I added the image you asked about as alt1. I believe this image might be even better because both towers of the bridge are in the image. The caption is still the same. I only took off mention of Belt of Venus.--GXK147 (talk) 22:23, 29 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Actually, the Alt you provided is a little more appealing. Since it is a picture of the the entire bridge, it provides more EV then the original. Thanks for providing the alt. Dusty777 (talk) 17:57, 30 November 2011 (UTC)


 * Oppose nice art, low EV. Pinetalk 01:36, 27 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Support per nom. Broccolo (talk) 02:26, 27 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Support both. Broccolo (talk) 17:11, 3 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Oppose Doesn't add much EV to the article in my view. JJ Harrison (talk) 08:33, 27 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Comment I believe the image has EV. As I explained in the caption fog played a role in the construction of the Bridge. This image shows the color of the bridge, the current FP does not.76.126.32.88 (talk) 16:25, 27 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Support Beautiful picture, caption has plenty of EV tying into the picture. Clegs (talk) 09:32, 29 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Edit: Support either, preference to alt 1. Clegs (talk) 12:48, 2 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Comment reply The caption here may explain the EV, but it's not explained in the article. If you make the EV in the article be higher then I'll reconsider my vote. However, there also appears to be compression noise in this photo and even a better EV in the article wouldn't overcome that problem. Pinetalk 09:43, 29 November 2011 (UTC)
 * It is actually explained in the article."Experts said that ferocious winds and blinding fogs would prevent construction and operation." and "The color was selected by consulting architect Irving Morrow because it complements the natural surroundings and enhances the bridge's visibility in fog." --GXK147 (talk) 16:20, 29 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Oppose Contrary to claims made here, I don't feel the image is educational about advection fog, therefore the addition to the caption does nothing to lift the image above earlier criticism. Papa Lima Whiskey 2 (talk) 08:24, 1 December 2011 (UTC)
 * I cannot understand why this image File:Ggb by night.jpg http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Ggb_by_night.jpg has EV, but the nominated images especially alternative do not. Alternative image shows the Bridge the city and the Bay. Opposing because of the lack of EV does not seem to be fair.--GXK147 (talk) 16:19, 1 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Support both and prefer original. Nice colors, look mystical -- George Chernilevsky  talk 21:53, 1 December 2011 (UTC)
