Info If rocks contain iron, it is normally Fe³⁺, which is red and gives the red or brown colour to the rocks. If the rocks do not contain Fe³⁺ but Fe²⁺, which is blueish-green, the rocks show this uncommon coloration. This is a rare geological phenomenon.

Support An FP is supposed to instil emotion and this does that in spades. For me, it generates an almost nauseating, sickening feeling, making me think of some kind of alien world with gloppy green goo; rocks just aren't supposed to look green like this, yet here they are. It's a weird world we live in. --Peulle (talk) 19:24, 26 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

- Comment I know already, in your opinion all FP candidates must be taken 15 min before sunset. Especially in this case you would not see the true (correct) colour of the rocks, if the light is yellowish or reddish. --Llez (talk) 04:49, 29 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

+1. In this the color is the feature, not the shape of the rocks. --Cart (talk) 09:04, 29 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

- - Comment No, I don´t think all photographs should be taken 15 minutes before sunset. The light is too harsh in this one, flat, and not visually appealing. Some places can be photographed fine under this condition, but not this one. A directional, softer light would bring out rich textures,colors and tones, and wet it would probably look great. This looks like a photo one takes while passing by and photographically speaking is is neither challenging nor aesthetic, that is my opinion. --Tomascastelazo (talk) 02:39, 30 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Neutral of great quality and value, but imho not really pleasing to my eyes. However I won't put an oppose and chug things up. ― Gerifalte _Del Sabana 02:28, 30 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
