- Oppose - Nice photo, of course, but not striking enough to me for FP. The lack of contrast between the clouds in the sky and the snow on the slopes doesn't help. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 17:58, 28 September 2016 (UTC)
- Oppose Per Ikan. INeverCry 03:12, 29 September 2016 (UTC)

- Weak support I am going to give this my support even though it probably will not be promoted the way things are going because, when I first looked at it, I shivered slightly for a second or two. It's not the season for it and I am too many years removed from a ski slope, but the instant I saw it I felt myself again in a moment I have experienced many times: late in the afternoon, perhaps an hour before the lifts close, standing near the top of a run pondering whether I should try to make this next one fast so I can get in one more before calling it a day, just as a strong breeze comes up and makes me feel that chill even under all the warm insulating ski clothing I have been wearing all day, reminding me that my body is feeling its limits, as I regard a scene like this.
Any image that can capture that, can make me feel that, is in my opinion deserving of being featured, even if it is a rather static picture of a mountain under a partly cloudy/partly sunny sky. Daniel Case (talk) 17:45, 29 September 2016 (UTC)
- * Thanks Daniel. It's exactly what I felt looking at this photo taken some time ago but thinking forward to the next skiing season with the same feelings as yours. And, a cloudy sky makes your feelings towards dealing a rough nature more intense, maybe scaring. --Wolfgang Moroder (talk) 22:44, 29 September 2016 (UTC)
