 * Beautiful, very high quality image. It should contribute to the Seven Rila Lakes, but hidden in the gallery, it doesn't very much.  I suggest you replace the current image used on top of the article with this image (and put the other image in the gallery) as this image is far and away the best image currently on the page.  Also, I'm personally not a big fan of all of the people on the right.  I'd crop it to get the last of the tripod out of the image, but other people may disagree.  You've got the lakes listed on the image page, but you should also give the name and relative location of the missing lake (Lake Salzata is to the left, out of view?).

 * It is very nice, but by the time you crop it down to remove the shadows of the photographer you're going to reduce its appeal; leaving the shadows in will put off most people. I suspect you'd also get a hard time about the sky being blown out at the left - it reminds me of one of my nominations, Red Sand Garden, that got crunched largely for this reason (though not being a regular contributor, you might not receive as much criticism). --jjron 08:25, 14 September 2007 (UTC)
 * I would agree with the opinions above regarding my shadow and the people present in the picture. The place was crowded that day and I couldn't get a clean shot; additionally the time of the day was not great for this kind of picture and there are some stitching artifacts present. To correct Todor's description of the image, this is not an HDR but a single exposure panorama. Aski 19:51, 17 September 2007 (UTC)
