[edit] Horseshoe Canyon pictograph

This portion of the Great Gallery, found in Horseshoe Canyon, is an example of a Fremont pictograph (painted rock art). The full panel is 200 feet long and 15 feet high, and the paintings are life-sized human figures. The largest figure pictured is about 7 feet tall.

I (Zaui)took this picture, it appears in Pictogram, Fremont culture and Horseshoe Canyon. I think it's a pretty good detail of the gallery and a good example of a Fremont pictogram.

  • Nominate and support. - Ravedave 03:55, 13 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Weak Oppose I do realize that it does ilustrate the subject clearly, but I find it rather boring.Nnfolz 08:12, 13 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Oppose Agree with Nnfolz --Fir0002 09:17, 13 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Support Does opinion count on FPC??? (per above) The photo is large, high quality and historical. Childzy (Talk|Contribs) 10:46, 13 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Support either Edit 1 or Edit 2, but prefer Edit 2. -- moondigger 19:58, 13 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Support Striking, unusual, fascinating. It makes me want these hues in my life more often. Morganfitzp 20:53, 13 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Weak Oppose. High resolution/quality and historical background. However, image is not uncommon or extraordinary. I am sure there are much more elaborate pictographs than these. But if it must be added to FP, Edit 2 would be best choice. Thanks. AJ24 02:22, 15 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Weak support for edit 2.Stevage 08:47, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Oppose in my oppinion, there's nothing special about this image--Vircabutar 20:52, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Weak support It would be great if there was some kind of object in the image for scale so people would be able to easily visualize just how big these paintings really are. --Nebular110 22:41, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
