North Luzon Expressway


This is the picture of the North Luzon Expressway in the Philippines. I nominated this image because the lighting is good but there are still other criteria to be checked. Can this image pass as a Featured Image?

 * Thank you for you nomination. Yes, the lighting here is quite good, although the position of the sun has created issues for you with the distracting shadows across the road just in front of the camera. I'm afraid however that this wouldn't pass as a Featured Picture. It really looks much like any of a million other parts of roadways in the world, with few special features calling this picture to be anything outstanding. Even the size only barely makes the limits (minimum 1000px), and that alone would lead a number of voters to oppose for an easily reproducible image of a road. Composition wise, to be honest I think it looks a little bare - I actually feel that heavier traffic would help to improve this image, as it would add some interest. In fact I prefer another image in the article, also I believe taken by you, at the toll barrier, Image:Balintawak Toll Barrier.jpg. That image has more happening in it and is therefore more interesting, but it has its own issues that would prevent it being an FP. Keep up the good contributions. --jjron (talk) 08:50, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
