- Info All by by C messier -- C messier (talk) 18:16, 3 October 2016 (UTC)
- Comment The small chapel of Agios Konstantinos at the top of castle of Serifos and the steps that lead to it. The castle has been nowadays mostly ruined. Serifos, one of the out of beaten track islands of the Cyclades is also one of the most barren, despite having sufficient water. According to the greek mythology, Serifos was petrified when Perseus, who grew up in Serifos, showed the head of Medusa to Polydektes, the king of Serifos, and his retainers as punishment for the king's attempt to marry his mother by force. According to the legend, the head is buried deep inside the hill on top of which this chapel is located. -- C messier (talk) 18:16, 3 October 2016 (UTC)
- Support A brilliant composition and an interesting place. Personally I would probably have denoised the sky a bit, but really, it is only noticeable if you pixel peep. -- Slaunger (talk) 20:18, 3 October 2016 (UTC)
- Support - I pretty much agree with Slaunger in all respects. The mythological background info you supply strengthens the case for a feature even further. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 20:33, 3 October 2016 (UTC)

- Support I like the composition and simplicity. --Gnosis (talk) 03:05, 4 October 2016 (UTC)
- Support There is a very small amount of CA on the church, but I'm not letting that bother me. Daniel Case (talk) 06:36, 4 October 2016 (UTC)
- Support per above --Martin Falbisoner (talk) 07:00, 4 October 2016 (UTC)
- Comment Excellent, but really disturbing magenta CA to be corrected before getting my support (and sky a little noisy, as Slaunger said).--Jebulon (talk) 08:55, 4 October 2016 (UTC)
- Jebulon, done. --C messier (talk) 13:08, 4 October 2016 (UTC)
- Support Far much better !--Jebulon (talk) 18:06, 4 October 2016 (UTC)

Oppose- I'm not seeing the fringing in the earlier version. However, I'm seeing a drastic retroactive reshaping of the landscape to eliminate entire areas of stone. Correct me if there's something I failed to understand, but if that's what you did, I consider it a dishonest practice and now oppose a feature. I also consider it essential for you to ping everyone who's already voted on this photo, so they have a chance to pass judgment on what you've done. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 00:50, 5 October 2016 (UTC)Oppose This is a very different photo now, as Ikan points out.INeverCry (talk) 02:46, 5 October 2016 (UTC)- @Slaunger: @Martin Falbisoner: @W.carter: , @Daniel Case: @Gnosis: @Jebulon: Rock formations have been removed from the foreground, and lower right, the rock wall at middle right is half gone, etc. Please review this much altered nomination.

Oppose The diagonal path was a strong element of the previous composition which has been severely weakened. --King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 03:04, 5 October 2016 (UTC)- Support --King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 04:55, 5 October 2016 (UTC)
- Sorry, by mistake (and not dishonest practice), I uploaded file 9447 that looks quite similar, but as you noticed, 9441 is better. So @Slaunger: @Martin Falbisoner: @W.carter: , @Daniel Case: @Gnosis: @Jebulon: @INeverCry: , @Ikan Kekek: and @King of Hearts: please check again. --C messier (talk) 04:18, 5 October 2016 (UTC)

- +1 -- Slaunger (talk) 19:06, 5 October 2016 (UTC)
- I noticed the change before voting, and I decided it was not an issue. OK for me.--Jebulon (talk) 08:41, 5 October 2016 (UTC)
