•  Info created by Herbythyme - uploaded by Herbythyme - nominated by Herbythyme -- Herby ^{talk thyme} 17:25, 1 January 2010 (UTC)
•  Info Panorama looking South-West and West from Hey Tor on Dartmoor, Devon, UK in snow. It is made up from 4 images.
•  Info This image does have some similarities to this one in that they were taken less than a kilometre apart on the same day. However the similarity ends there for me as they were taken looking into opposite directions looking & into quite different conditions. To me this one reflects a bleaker and more remote scene well. There is a little light and the detail is there but in the distance the snow is falling and the weather closing in.

  • I'm learning about personal taste and I appreciate the feedback too. If I'm honest I prefer this one but I felt the other had more "easy impact". This is much moodier but reflects the scene well (imho!). I've got a few panos from today but I'm working on them at present and there was no snow (just some frost).

•  Neutral I'd support without hesitation if it wasn't for one thing: The pano is tilted. A CCW rotation of between 1 and 1.5 degrees is all that's required (check the horizon on the right quarter of the image for example, that terrain is approx level), I would do it myself and present the alt but it would be better if Herby did so as I would lose more of the scene working from this file than Herby would working from the originals.--Nilfanion (talk) 21:15, 2 January 2010 (UTC)
  • Referring to the ordinance survey map the cairns on Rippon tor are on almost exactly the same contour line as the tor itself making the image a pretty true representation to me. I see from the file history that the image has been adjusted by 0.5 deg already. I don't see compelling evidence for any further adjustment I'm afraid. --Herby ^{talk thyme} 09:15, 3 January 2010 (UTC)
    • I'd still prefer a bit more, but no point arguing ad infinitum over such a minor issue. I think its within personal preference anyway as opposed to serious issue so I'll  Support.--Nilfanion (talk) 12:22, 3 January 2010 (UTC)
