•  Comment Quite a lot of chromatic aberration. Could you reduce it? —kallerna™ 12:49, 8 December 2009 (UTC)
•  Support original ... it just looks more realistic than the edit to me. —Ed (talk • contribs) 06:05, 9 December 2009 (UTC)
•  Support This version is fine with me too.--Mbz1 (talk) 14:58, 9 December 2009 (UTC)
•  Oppose Composition isn't IMO that good. —kallerna™ 15:13, 9 December 2009 (UTC)

• Could you please explain what's wrong with the composition? –Juliancolton | ^Talk 19:48, 9 December 2009 (UTC)

• Photo just isn't extraordinary IMO. You could have tried some other perspective and it's too centered. For instance, this one is from same kind of place, but the composition is more striking IMO. —kallerna™ 15:43, 10 December 2009 (UTC)

•  Support Though I like the other one this is good too. --Herby ^{talk thyme} 15:40, 9 December 2009 (UTC)
•  Support nice --George Chernilevsky ^talk 13:44, 10 December 2009 (UTC)
•  Support Having lived through this same weekend storm, in the same region as nominator, I like the mood in this one better. Daniel Case (talk) 16:46, 10 December 2009 (UTC)
•  Oppose I thought a long time about it, but in the end I have to agree with Kallerna. I believe that the atmosphere was great, but I think it would have to be a bit more extraordinary for a FP. Sorry. Nikopol (talk) 15:30, 12 December 2009 (UTC)

• I'm not sure what more one would want. This is probably the best shot I could have gotten of this scene in its natural state, without trying to achieve some all-too-common artificial composition that reduces the image's educational value. –Juliancolton | ^Talk 15:56, 12 December 2009 (UTC)
• I agree that I would have been very hard to come up with a better composition for that place. But I´m not shure whether every scene existing, though perhaps atmospheric in real life and of educational value, can be captured in a photo worth beeing elected FP. IMO this is a well-made photo of "a rural dirt road after a bout of snowfall", but lacking a bit on the “wow factor” a FP should have. Nikopol (talk) 17:06, 12 December 2009 (UTC)

• Alright, that's fair then. Thanks for participating. :) –Juliancolton | ^Talk 18:10, 12 December 2009 (UTC)

•  Oppose Just a way. --Karel (talk) 21:16, 13 December 2009 (UTC)

• Sorry? I don't understand, could you please clarify? (Sorry if this comes across as badgering, I'm just interested in improving for future shots. :)) –Juliancolton | ^Talk 22:20, 13 December 2009 (UTC)

•  Oppose Nice, but not enough wow for me. (P.S. I think the previous voter could be translated as "Just a road".) --99of9 (talk) 12:33, 14 December 2009 (UTC)
•  Oppose Good photo, but there needs to be an exceptionally good composition to generate wow on an everyday subject. --MattiPaavola (talk) 18:37, 14 December 2009 (UTC)
•  Oppose nothing particularly outstanding --Leafnode✉ 11:51, 15 December 2009 (UTC)
