•  Info Views from Litlefjellet ridge to Romsdalen and its surrounding Romsdalsalpene mountains, Møre og Romsdal, Norway in 2013 June. Also the highest vertical rock face in Europe (one of the highest in the world), the Trollveggen, is featured in this landscape on the other side of the valley.

•  Support Very good quality and composition. Did you use a polarizing filter? The sky in the center of the pano is visibly darker than the edges. --Tuxyso (talk) 17:47, 29 July 2013 (UTC)

• I did. Need for a correction? --Ximonic (talk) 18:07, 29 July 2013 (UTC)

• Not for me - IMHO it is good as it is. But it is a bit curious that up to now no one has realized it. Former nomination of mine were regualary critized in cases of irregular brightness distributions on the sky. --Tuxyso (talk) 18:19, 29 July 2013 (UTC)

• I felt the urge to try a little. I found kind of a handy tool for reducing the dark. Maybe it's less intense. Usually less cloudy situations are a bit more difficult with a filter because the effect can be easier to notice. --Ximonic (talk) 18:30, 29 July 2013 (UTC)

• The problem is that the angle to the sun and thus the intensity of the polarizing filter changes when you rotate your camera for the panoramic view. To archieve a homogenous brightness distribution you must rotate your polarizing filter after every rotational step. To do that precisely is nearly imposible. I have decided for me to photograph panos without polarizing filter to avoid additional post-processing. I've seen your correction. Better than before. Which tool did you use? Viveza 2? --Tuxyso (talk) 18:49, 29 July 2013 (UTC) --Tuxyso (talk) 18:43, 29 July 2013 (UTC)

• I opened it in Photoshop and chose a soft brush in divide mode. Then I searched for an appropriate tone of gray for the brush and - as little as enough - used it for the target areas. The brush didn't harm the details, only whitened the dark a bit. Maybe this is a good hint for someone but it has to be used carefully. --Ximonic (talk) 07:49, 30 July 2013 (UTC)

Alternative

•  Info I'm aware that these are two different pictures from different positions. Yet I concidered there are so much same features in both of the pictures that it is an either/or or neither situation. What do you think? --Ximonic (talk) 19:11, 28 July 2013 (UTC)

•  Support I've had a really tough time deciding between the two. Ultimately, I chose this one because of the use of a bold, sweeping line curving into and directing the viewer's attention to the peak of the mountain. --King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 02:09, 1 August 2013 (UTC)
•  Support Really so difficult to come to a decision. I like King of Hearts argument. Jacopo Werther ^iγ∂ψ=mψ 09:59, 6 August 2013 (UTC)
