•  Oppose Sorry, beautiful picture, but still just another dawnphoto. Quite noisy. —kallerna™ 11:01, 30 September 2009 (UTC)

Per kallerna. -- JovanCormac 11:55, 30 September 2009 (UTC)

•  Support I cannot agree that it is just "just another dawnphoto". As a matter of fact the image is not only beautiful, but it also has a great EV. Did you notice the other heron much farther down? It is amazing to see that the water does not get any deeper for such a great distance, and not in a lake, but in English Channel! Small noise in the right hand corner could always be removed or cut off.--Mbz1 (talk) 13:44, 30 September 2009 (UTC)

•  Oppose The heron is too small, and there is nothing apart from that. Beautiful anyway. Yann (talk) 22:08, 1 October 2009 (UTC)
•  Support The heron is too small, but picture too nice, per MBz1 -- George Chernilevsky ^talk 10:07, 2 October 2009 (UTC)

•  Support per Mbz1 - though I can't see the other heron...--Nilfanion (talk) 15:47, 2 October 2009 (UTC)

I added the annotation for the second heron. I hope you see it now :)--Mbz1 (talk) 18:58, 2 October 2009 (UTC)

•  Support Great mood shot. Complaints about noise are a bit irrelevant - low light level: a long exposure would just give that milky water look (which while nice, is a different sort of shot) and would blur any movement from the birds, waiting for more light will miss the moment and be less interesting. --Tony Wills (talk) 01:20, 4 October 2009 (UTC)
