Alternative Panorama of Loch Ard Gorge
Alternative Panorama of Loch Ard Gorge

If there is any confusion, I apologise. I originally inserted this image into the previous nomination for Loch Ard Gorge as a comparison, but it has been pointed out that it would be best to nominate it separately and let the chips fall where they may. This is a 4 segment panorama from a lookout point above the gorge. I will insert the previous chatter relating to this image.

  • Nominate and support. - Diliff | (Talk) (Contribs) 22:40, 12 April 2006 (UTC)
    • Comment. Now I dont't want you to put your life on the line for those pictures, but couldn't you have gotten a little closer to the cliff? The feature in the middle, which looks like a heap of gravel, dominates the picture a bit too much for my taste. --Dschwen 21:52, 12 April 2006 (UTC)
      • Haha, fair critique. I wasn't game enough to go any closer to the edge, and it was fenced off. That was the best angle I could get from above. Diliff | (Talk) (Contribs) 22:05, 12 April 2006 (UTC)
  • Support alternative. Very sharp and detailed. Out of curiosity, what is the white thing on the rock on the left side of the picture? Mweston85 (UTC)
    • I suspect it was a sign prohibiting swimming. This is a very dangerous area as you could easily get pulled out into the gorge and washed up against the rocks. Loch Ard Gorge is the site of a famous shipwreck. Diliff | (Talk) (Contribs) 22:08, 12 April 2006 (UTC)
  • I figured it had to be a sign of some sort. Mweston85 (UTC)
  • Support very pretty, nice image quality. chowells 02:04, 13 April 2006 (UTC)
  • Support This is a great picture. There is nothing wrong with it. In fact, the cliff in the center actually adds to its greatness, not the other way around. Some people don't know good photography when they see it like Dschwen. I can also see some symbollism in this photo, I'll let you determine what you think it looks like. Awesome photo.

  • Support Really great image. Quite eye capturing. I love the composition with the ridge at the center also, as it highlights the near-symmetry of the gorge. —Cuiviénen, Thursday, 13 April 2006 @ 03:24 (UTC)
  • Weak support. Great geography, but, as mentioned above, I think the photo would be better having been taken a few feet forward. bcasterline t 06:24, 13 April 2006 (UTC)
  • Support. Can't find anything negative to say about this image. - Mgm|(talk) 08:40, 13 April 2006 (UTC)
  • Support Nice photo --Fir0002 www 11:20, 13 April 2006 (UTC)

  • Support very nice picture. Pegasus1138Talk | Contribs | Email ---- 18:07, 16 April 2006 (UTC)
  • Support, very nice geography. --Lewk_of_Serthic contrib talk 20:43, 18 April 2006 (UTC)
  • Support. Whoever put that fence up on the left really sucks. gren グレン 01:24, 20 April 2006 (UTC)
    • Perhaps it keeps people from falling to an untimely demise? Mooveeguy 18:28, 20 April 2006 (UTC)
      • Why would we want to do that? Surely you don't want to monkey with natural selection? ;) --Dante Alighieri | Talk 20:57, 21 April 2006 (UTC)
