Lake Ontario

File:Lake Ontario.JPG

Original - A glimpse of Lake Ontario

Reason: A nice shot- natural and vibrant colors. A very different perspective view of the Lake.

Oppose low encyclopedic value for the subject matter. A very pretty shot, but something with the scale of Lake Ontario can't be described with a view through a window, sorry. --Uncle Bungle (talk) 02:01, 19 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose a nice shot but doesn't really help illustarte the intended ~~structure~~ subject - low encyclopaedic value. Guest9999 (talk) 02:46, 19 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Where are we getting this glimpse from? If the location is significant - some sort of cave, or historic location - this could be encyclopaedic, but as it is, we're not getting enough info. Shoemaker's Holiday (talk) 12:06, 19 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
All right! I kind of figured thats its got a low encyclopedic value. Probably this picture would be well off calling it just a lake rather than Lake Ontario. And as far as the location is concerned, it was one of those snowy days and this glimpse was from a window between icy patches. No caves. Taken from the ground level of the bridge. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 165.170.128.65 (talk) 13:02, 19 March 2008 (UTC) [reply]

Oppose Even if it were encyc, you still have the tilted horizon and the lake out of focus. Sorry. --Bridgecross (talk) 20:38, 19 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. I do like this picture, I think it's pretty and I would be very proud if I had taken it, but all the concerns above are completely true. This wouldn't make a good featured picture. J Milburn (talk) 13:05, 22 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Per shoemaker. Spencer^T♦^C 17:03, 22 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
