Niagara Falls




The Niagara Falls article has a plethora of high-quality images, and I figured one of them should be featured. I think that this one, by Dylan Kereluk, adds the most encyclopaedic value by giving a close up view that captures the power and scale of the falls in a way that a wide shot of a tour boat beside them cannot.

 * Oppose, shadow in the bottom right corner, unexciting 50:50 composition, and unspectacular viewpoint. --Dschwen 11:50, 16 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Oppose, the water is blurry and the image just seems dull. Night Gyr (talk/Oy) 15:46, 16 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Oppose A better shot of the falls can be found elsewhere. Sharkface217 20:42, 16 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Oppose It's a great photo, but it doesn't deserve to be a featured picture. I'm sure there are better shots of Niagara Falls. -- Kicking222 14:59, 18 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Weak Oppose Not the best angle. -- ¿ Why  1  9  9  1  ESP. 05:30, 21 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Oppose both. Consumer camera, low quality sensor. It's possible to get a much better photo of the subject matter. If someone with a DSLR camera took some good shots of the falls, I would wholeheartedly support. Noclip 04:38, 22 December 2006 (UTC)

 * Oppose I dont think the main subject is the stuff behind, the focus of the top is better than the water. User:Voshvoshka Dec 22, 6:23pm
 * Oppose both Not interesting enough. Sorry but the re-colouring has worsen the picture, the colour of the water is far from natural. Alvesgaspar 10:41, 23 December 2006 (UTC)
