•  Info View from Shingo La (elev. 5,054m/16,580') north towards Lungnak valley, Zanskar. Created by Tagooty - uploaded by Tagooty - nominated by Tagooty -- Tagooty (talk) 04:03, 15 November 2022 (UTC)
•  Support The barren mountain slopes in this high-altitude semi-desert have a fascinating range of colours. -- Tagooty (talk) 04:03, 15 November 2022 (UTC)
•  Comment Very striking, but I doubt the circular artifact toward the upper right left corner of the sky is natural, and if it's not, please fix the problem. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 19:48, 15 November 2022 (UTC)
  • Rather on the left corner, or is that another one? Perhaps a cloning error from removing dust spots --Julesvernex2 (talk) 21:14, 15 November 2022 (UTC)

• Indeed, the left (or, as we say, the "other right"). :-) -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 22:13, 15 November 2022 (UTC)

•  Comment Tagooty, this seems a tad oversharpened to me. I think that shooting this scene at f/8 instead of f/16 would have produced a sharper image without any discernible loss in depth of field, and hence reduce the need to apply sharpening --Julesvernex2 (talk) 21:22, 15 November 2022 (UTC)

•  Done @Ikan Kekek and Julesvernex2: Thanks for the comments. I've fixed the sensor spot in top left, and removed the post-processing sharpening. Please see the new version. --Tagooty (talk) 03:39, 16 November 2022 (UTC)

•  Support Thanks. It's so striking, I feel impelled to vote for it. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 04:37, 16 November 2022 (UTC)
•  Support Yep, there's something unique about these high altitude barren landscapes. It's not the sharpest photograph out there, but it still has plenty of resolution and detail. --Julesvernex2 (talk) 11:03, 16 November 2022 (UTC)
•  Support Austere and beautiful Cmao20 (talk) 14:42, 16 November 2022 (UTC)

•  Support --Frank Schulenburg (talk) 04:11, 18 November 2022 (UTC)
•  Support striking colours --SHB2000 (talk) 01:29, 19 November 2022 (UTC)
•  Support --Llez (talk)
•  Weak support The patchy snow on the summit at left still looks more like paint globs, but it doesn't ruin the image for me and I suppose there's nothing more than can be done about it. Daniel Case (talk) 14:20, 19 November 2022 (UTC)
