Oppose Distracting composition. --The High Fin Sperm Whale 23:31, 15 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose per THFSW. I would prefer a landscape slightly wider shot. Not sure what point is in crowbaring in sea at the top as this is not part of the picture - not from the wording anyway. First impression of picture is of a badly composed coast shot that has been cropped too thin and focussed too low, but then you read the note and the only part of the photo required is the rock itself...

Weak support. I'm gonna go against the flow here, and say that this is a great illustration of the Carmelo Formation (not as good in the other article, but still has a place). I hear what is being said about the distracting composition (hence the "weak"), but I think the ribbon of sea is useful- this is a specific formation being illustrated, so showing the surrounding area is not necessarily a bad thing.

Weak Oppose Portrait orientation feels cramped, shadows lose detail. Fletcher (talk) 00:30, 23 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
