Natural limestone arch in Dorset, UK.
  • No; the nom. I mentioned above is at EN which has different review criteria. My comment above is also per my personal POV; not about its quality on aesthetic aspects. There is not a requirement that a reviewer need to be capable to take competitive pictures. But he had a lot of FPs earlier; and this make a Flickr Explore #1 recently.

  •  Oppose The sea is unnaturally dark and the same with half of the cliff. I haven't been there myself but a quick google search gives me pictures with much better lighting, for example here. Apart from this, a long exposure would certainly add some wow to the photo but now it's just a snapshot. I would expected something more from someone with so "high standards" and extremely critical towards others. --Urmas Haljaste (talk) 09:18, 20 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
 Comment Please do not make personal attacks. You should refer to comment on the image. It is the best way to bring this section, the most balanced, technically and objectively as possible. I invite you to reflect and stop this negative attitude. On the other hand, from the technical point of view, the example you have shown me a picture much more digitally modified than the current nomination (look the sky and overexposition, for example). I lived on the coast for 30 years and have seen similar colors to this photo. --Wilfredo R. Rodríguez H. (talk) 12:48, 20 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
