Goosenecks State Park incised meanders


This image is from the Gooseneck State Park article. The canyon of the goosenecks is over 1000 feet high. The River is the San Juan which is tributary of the Colorado River and upstream of the Grand Canyon. No photo can really do this sight full justice, but the image here is quite good.

 * Nominate and support. - MichaelSH 02:00, 21 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Weak oppose - tecnically not so great, severe compression and/or sharpening artifacts, it's very fuzzy in full size. A sharper and/or downsampled version might get my support - I like the summetry of the river bends! Pity they are clipped by the cliff edge... --Janke | Talk 06:15, 21 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Oppose a little too much foreground and the lighting could be better (colors look a bit bland and the sky is blown). --Dschwen 08:40, 21 April 2006 (UTC)
 * I don't think there's anything wrong with the foreground, but the sky is washed out and the rest of the image is out of focus, so I'll still have to oppose. - Mgm|(talk) 09:07, 21 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Support It's true that the sky is a little washed out, but there's very little of the sky showing in the first place, and that's not the point of the picture. And while there is more of the ledge in the foreground than I would like, I think it illustrates the subject very well. Ghostofgauss 14:47, 21 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Oppose due to quality per Janke. Interesting geology though. bcasterline t 15:46, 21 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Oppose. Strong sharpening is making it look unnatural. The sky is blown out. Mikeo 17:33, 21 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Oppose. Interesting subject, but technical problems with the image. --Dante Alighieri | Talk 19:19, 21 April 2006 (UTC)
 * [[Image:Symbol oppose vote.png|15px]] Oppose Nice enough subject but the image quality is pretty atrocious. --Fir0002 style="color:#C6CACC; background:#F8FCFF">www 11:56, 22 April 2006 (UTC)
