  • Nominate and support. - Rain74 17:33, 29 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Support. Interesting, that's a pretty crowded place! --Janke | Talk 19:04, 29 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Support Absolutely amazing. That kind of resolution with no serious artifacting (even in the sky), it's a great shot. Staxringold 19:08, 29 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Support Amazing picture. Good quality. Mikeo 19:45, 29 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Support High res, no artifacts (like staxringold said) and a good shot. --Oblivious 19:48, 29 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Support. Incredible shot. Almost looks fake. bcasterline t 19:51, 29 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Support I really like it, although it does not quite convey how crowded that place really is. But then, I don't think any picture could do Malé justice :-) Mstroeck 19:55, 29 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Support per above. –Joke 00:09, 30 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Suppoty per oblivious Leidiot 00:33, 30 March 2006 (UTC
  • Support. That is soooo cool. Kinda freaky, but cool. Excellent picture with nothing really wrong about it. --Midnighttonight 01:27, 30 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Strong Support Wow! PageantUpdater 04:15, 30 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Support, I came across this picture before. I like the background, looks like it was Photoshopped (or a fake). --Terence Ong 11:11, 30 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Support, amazing colours, good compostion! Bertilvidet 16:16, 30 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Support, an amazing image! Should definitely be a FP. Arco Acqua 18:05, 30 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Oppose Original. Support Edit Amazing island, but I really can't see the good image quality previously describe. Have you guys seen the image at full res? It's pretty bad. I'd suggest resizing to hide some of the artefacts at the very least.
  • Support,I see artifacts in the sky, but they don't distract. pschemp | talk 05:58, 2 April 2006 (UTC)
  • Support, the colours look a little over-saturated to me, but it's an interesting image alright. --BillC 10:21, 2 April 2006 (UTC)
  • Support, this has long been one of my very favorite pictures on Wikipedia. It's like a zit popping out of the ocean. :) --Golbez 06:57, 4 April 2006 (UTC)
  • Support L1CENSET0K1LL 19:43, 5 April 2006 (UTC)
  • Support. This dramatizes overpopulation. David R. Ingham 05:53, 7 April 2006 (UTC)
  • Oppose both. The colour quality of the image is poor - at full resolution you can clearly see full bands of colour blocks where it should gradient. The beauty of the island almost makes up for it but the quality of the photo doesn't make the grade. BigBlueFish 13:30, 7 April 2006 (UTC)
  • Support. I know it's cool. - Darwinek 18:08, 7 April 2006 (UTC)
  • Support. This stands out amidst the crowded field of stunning aerial island photography. --Philopedia 14:26, 8 April 2006 (UTC)
