Larrys Creek Covered Bridge

 * Reason:Appears to meet the FPC criteria. In WP:PPR User:Dincher wrote "I really like the simplicity of it. The photo shows the structure of the bridge. It shows how the bridge works from an exterior view. Most covered bridges look quaint and rustic, but the photos don't show the arch that is the key to holding the bridge. This photo does. As an added bonus the photo also shows the effects that a creek has on the creek bank. Note that Larrys Creek is in its normal stream bed in this photo, but that the effects of the recent winter melt can be seen in the grasses that have been flattened on the creek bank. Looking at the picture tells me a story."

 * Weak Support: I don't like the trees getting in the way of the bridge in the right-hand side.  ~   St ep  tr ip   15:26, 7 April 2007 (UTC) 
 * Oppose By no means is this a bad photograph. It nicely illustrates the bridge. However, if you take a look at the current featured pictures of architecture, the bar for a featured picture is higher than to what this photograph reaches. It is a nice picture, really, but it just does not have the crisp feel or the wow factor that featured pictures demand. If you are serious about getting a picture of this bridge featured, try a different angle (I find the tilt as well as the trees distracting), and take several shots to try to capture the "feel" of the bridge. A sharper focus would help, too. Thegreenj 16:08, 7 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Oppose I agree with J, not inspiring when compared to current FPs. |→ Spaully°τ 16:18, 7 April 2007 (GMT)
 * Oppose Not very interesting, and the trees are in the way. 8thstar 20:46, 7 April 2007 (UTC)
