  • Oppose. It's really not a bad shot in terms of the composition, but the technical aspects of the photograph prevent it from becoming a featured picture. The two biggest problems in my opinion are the noise and the blown highlights in the sky. --Tewy 03:25, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Oppose Do you have one without the noise?• Leon
  • Oppose. Agree with previous comments, it is good compositionally but the quality of the image is quite low. Diliff | (Talk) (Contribs) 07:35, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Oppose. It looks like someone intentionally put it through a grain filter, or one that makes it look like a painting. NauticaShades 07:43, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Oppose. Nice composition and beatiful image. Pity that technical quality is so poor. - Alvesgaspar 08:53, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Oppose, An edit could probably reduce the color noise, but it could do nothing for the sharpness. The image looks smoothed over and the detail at 100% is very poor.--Andrew c 15:58, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Oppose Too much noise to be a featured picture. Hello32020 18:56, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Neutral I'd normally oppose, but I've been really interested in the Yukon and Northwest Territories over the past few days for some reason. I discovered the beauty of the Bitterroot Range in Montana last year (while on the Wikipedia!) and I vacationed there for nearly a month last summer.. this year I hope to do Canada :). Anyway, this picture just helped reinforce me wanting to visit. drumguy8800 C T 19:51, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
