Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/Iguazu Falls Panorama

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Reason
It's an amazing falls with a good picture. The picture shows the scope of the falls, doesn't appear to have any artifacts or other problems, and is beautiful. It isn't fantastically huge, but I do think it is clear enough. This is the best of the pictures on the Spanish, Portugese and English pages for Iguazu Falls. I found it because of an old failed FP nomination of a picture of Devil's Throat.

  • Comment. Previous nomination here. --Tewy 23:20, 28 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    • Ooops! I've recently started voting (mostly opposes) and I figured it would be good to be constructive, too. But apparently I didn't do enough research. How do I get rid of this proposed nomination? Enuja 23:29, 28 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
      • There's no need to remove this. You can nominate an image more than once, although it's usually best to wait some time before doing so. But, October was a while ago, and maybe opinions have changed since then. If you want to nominate another image, just be sure to check the bottom of the image page to see what page(s) it's in. --Tewy 01:17, 29 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak oppose. Blown highlights on the subjects, bottom a little cut off (though possibly unavoidable). Stunning image, but just a few too many minor problems. --Tewy 23:25, 28 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Neutral Wow, this is good…would have loved to be there…but there the bottom is cut off, there's that metal thing in the bottom left corner, and general other small things. It's hard to pass up, though.--HereToHelp 00:51, 29 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
By "that metal thing in the bottom left corner" are you referring to what looks very much like a vine in the bottom left corner? If you look at the bottom right, there is also up-close foliage, so I strongly suspect that the picture was taken from an overlook, and both the vine on the left and the plants on the right are on the sides of the over-look.

It's the long, thin, cord-like thing in the very bottom-left the goes out to the right and then coils back on itself. It looks unnatural to me. (But I wouldn't change me vote over it.)--HereToHelp 01:47, 31 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
