Support Even the individual elements of the picture, the leafless forest below, the hills afar and the trees on the rocky outcrop work perfectly by themselves, together it's just wonderful. It's the kind of photo that doesn't immediately grab the viewer by the eyeballs but the more one looks at it the more one likes it. The only thing I'd try to do is soften the trees on the second rock - currently the prominent branches pop out too prominently while the others blend nicely with the background. I quickly blurred them in PS with the blur tool @ 15% and methinks it looks better. /nitpicking -- KennyOMG (talk) 18:55, 11 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Support I could wish for a non-crop of the trees, but that is just a minor thing. Could also agree with KennyOMG about the blurring, that would bring out the "human profile" (can you see it?) on the rock better --cart-Talk 20:43, 11 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Hi cart, as I always do, I really appreciate your opinion, so I've tried to put a series of radial unsharpness filters around the "face" but technically the result doesn't convince me and it doesn't convince me either from the "ethical photographer's" point of view. IMO this would be too much modification of reality so please forgive that I won't upload a new version. --Basotxerri (talk) 21:37, 11 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

No problemo, your photo, your rules. It was a minor thing. :) --cart-Talk 22:43, 11 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Sorry, the composition look unbalanced to me. There is too much visual weight on the top left, and the shadow on the bottom left is also unattractive. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 21:59, 11 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose per King. --Alchemist-hp (talk) 22:08, 11 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Support I don't actually mind that this particular image is unbalanced; one of those "rules are made for breaking" cases. It gives me a sense of how much the rocks stick out relative to their surrounds. -- Thennicke (talk) 11:23, 16 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Support Agree with Thennicke. The crop illustrate the un-balance between the massive rocks on the left and the nothingness on the right. --Pugilist (talk) 16:08, 16 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
