- Info all by me -- Jebulon (talk) 16:06, 9 November 2014 (UTC)
- Support Simple maybe, but the more I see it, the more I like it, especially since I use it as wallpaper.-- Jebulon (talk) 16:06, 9 November 2014 (UTC)
- Support I like it too! --P e z i (talk) 21:04, 10 November 2014 (UTC)
- Support I like the subject very much. I think it's missing just a little something to make it a really awesome image deluxe™. Maybe it's the composition. Maybe it's the light and early morning or evening light would have worked better. I don't now. FP anyway, for me. --El Grafo (talk) 16:18, 11 November 2014 (UTC)
- I can sing a flamenco song for you, if you want...:)--Jebulon (talk) 17:00, 11 November 2014 (UTC)
- Support --Hubertl (talk) 18:55, 11 November 2014 (UTC) same with me. The more I see it...
- weak Oppose for composition. Why so flat an image when there is so much depth available? Place the camera a bit more to the left to make the coastline meet the horizon beyond the boat. Take a lower vantage point to make the boat look bigger in the image, maybe even make it rise above the horizon. This way it’s just a boat on the beach. Not special enough for FP IMHO, sorry. --Kreuzschnabel 09:09, 13 November 2014 (UTC)
- I understand your interesting comments and I thank you for review, User:Kreuzschnabel. As I don't share your opinion, I suppose it is here a matter of taste... Please consider to sign your vote, which is not valid for now, as officially anonymous...--Jebulon (talk) 12:59, 13 November 2014 (UTC)
- Oops, I forgot to sign. Thanks for the hint. --Kreuzschnabel 20:46, 13 November 2014 (UTC)

- Support --Ralf Roleček 22:18, 13 November 2014 (UTC) sorry for german, in english i cant say this correct: Die Komposition gefällt mir, die Küstenlinie geht nach links unten, das Boot dann nach rechts. Solche Fischerboote mit bunten Elementen sind immer interessant, hier ist es nicht kitschig und zu bunt. Das Grün des Meeres findet sich im Boot wieder. Schöne natürliche Farben. Ich hätte nur den harten Schatten am Boot noch etwas aufgehellt aber das Bild ist auch so schon sehr gut.
- Danke sehr.--Jebulon (talk) 09:51, 14 November 2014 (UTC)

- Oppose -- I agree with Kreuzschnabel. The composition could have been better when the photographer had tried out some different angles. It's a pity, because fishing boats make fantastic subjects. Jules Grandgagnage (talk) 15:58, 14 November 2014 (UTC)
- Oppose I would love to see more fishing boat FPs, but the composition (and perhaps the lighting as well) in this one is lacking. -- Ram-Man 19:58, 14 November 2014 (UTC)

- Ah yes, about my personal photography for the commons. Which is why I don't have as many featured pictures as I'd like. I take boring photos again and again. -- Ram-Man 21:48, 14 November 2014 (UTC)
- Oh no, not boring at all. I think your way to assess is a bit harsh, but I 100% agree with you. My own goal is documentary pictures too, That's why I am on "Commons", and nowhere else.--Jebulon (talk) 22:12, 14 November 2014 (UTC)
- I say "boring" from a popular perspective. I may think they are wonderful, but they "have no wow". Sure, it's been 4 years since my last FP, so maybe things have changed, but I attempted to get some of my better "boring" photos featured twice (here and here) never receiving more than 5 votes. However, there are times I really appreciate that it is difficult to get a FP, even if I don't like the outcome. -- Ram-Man 22:29, 14 November 2014 (UTC)
