• Oppose Poor quality. And if you plan on demonstrating Mount Tai, shouldn't it be a picture of the mountain instead of this? crassic!^[talk] 11:46, 24 April 2008 (UTC)

• Not necessarily. You could illustrate disneyland by showing just the disney castle after all. As long as this illustrates a notable part of the mountain or is typical of the mountain, it has EV (I suspect the former). de Bivort 12:54, 24 April 2008 (UTC)

• Oppose blown sky and chromatic abberation. de Bivort 12:55, 24 April 2008 (UTC)
• Weak support - I'd recommend you to nominate it on Commons instead. diego_pmc (talk) 14:33, 24 April 2008 (UTC)
• Oppose The technical aspects are poor as mentioned above, and the composition could have been executed better. Lipton sale (talk) 18:29, 24 April 2008 (UTC)
• Oppose But first, it is actually put into the article very appropriately illustrating a section of the article - it does not try to demonstrate the whole mountain. The subject could however do with better treatment - the faded distance weakens it, the matt colouring dullens it and for an illustration of angularity, it lacks sharpness.

• Oppose I have no problem with the article placement or composition. However, the quality is unacceptable. Sorry.--HereToHelp ^{(talk to me)} 23:12, 24 April 2008 (UTC)
• Oppose original poor contrast, blown highlights, see example for how there is room for improvement Capital photographer (talk) 17:45, 25 April 2008 (UTC)
  • Nice work Cap! a bit off technical jiggery pokery makes a significant difference here Motmit (talk) 20:13, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
• Very weak oppose. Excelent subject matter, but unfortunately, not so good a picture. Spinach Dip 02:10, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
