 * Not sure A very pretty picture, if there ever was one. However, I have two concerns&mdash;firstly, is the horizon meant to be straight, because its tilted at the moment and it doesn't look right. Secondly, I'm not at all happy with the tracks (tyres, I assume) at the bottom of the image, which are unnatural.  Wackywace  converse 13:07, 6 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Perhaps it would be better to crop the part of the picture where the tracks are?--Tomobe03 (talk) 14:32, 6 October 2010 (UTC)
 * On the second thought: if the tracks were removed, would that make the photo acceptable?--Tomobe03 (talk) 15:58, 6 October 2010 (UTC)
 * I would certainly be more inclined to support, although if you cut out the sand at the bottom, the photo would be uneven and so the sky would have to be cut off too, only that would be a waste of such a pretty day. A panorama (i.e. with the tracks and sky cropped off) might look ok, but I'm not entirely sure.  Wackywace  converse 17:35, 6 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Support edit 3  Wackywace  converse 10:22, 8 October 2010 (UTC)
 * I presume you mean the third image from the top, i.e. edit 2 - there is no edit 3 at this point. Right?--Tomobe03 (talk) 11:34, 8 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Ah, yes, silly me. You are correct, I mean the panorama.  Wackywace  converse 15:33, 8 October 2010 (UTC)


 * 3/4 support to edit 2 - full support if LHS of rock were better lit/exposed/HDRed. Papa Lima Whiskey (talk) 22:22, 6 October 2010 (UTC)
 * And nothing wrong with tyre tracks, no. I just think edit 1 has a bit too much sky - a different crop might be possible, without removing the tracks. Papa Lima Whiskey (talk) 14:14, 7 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Support either edit. I don't see anything wrong with tyre tracks. Noodle snacks (talk) 11:12, 7 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Support only alt 2. Nergaal (talk) 23:55, 8 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Support any. J Milburn (talk) 00:37, 12 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Weak support edit 2 only, weak due to lighting of LHS. The tracks in the other versions are too distracting for me. --Avenue (talk) 14:12, 12 October 2010 (UTC)
