Support - I came back three times to look at the image and I was torn... I LOVE the thumb but the bigger views reveal a somewhat lacking cut on the right hand side (by the way, I love the color of exactly that patch of the thumb image): I am talking about the very light spot on the far right. The contrasting colors are vivid and well done and the mist adds a little extra. As I said, I like it in thumb size. I am unsure about full size! :-) -- Boereck 22:55, 24 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose colors are quite weird, the mountains in the background are too blurry and the foreground is not that great to counter that -- Gorgo 23:16, 24 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - baffled . . . "This photo was taken on January 6, 2006" . . . so why the trees in autumn colours, and lack of snow in a heavy-snowfall area? Definitely something odd here. I'd say October or early November. - MPF 16:25, 25 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Interesting that you noticed. This photo was taken in January, but this year we had one of the most bizarre winters in Alberta I have ever seen. We didn't get any snow until early February. If you look at this picture you can see the river is a bit frozen over. Regarding the color of the trees, those are all evergreens. Anomity 19:58, 25 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the extra info; I took the yellow trees in the middle distance to be Subalpine Larches in autumn colour. Voting Support for the pic - MPF 15:07, 26 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Neutral Take photo in this place with train! Will be greate.--Sebastianm 18:22, 25 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

That is what everyone keeps telling me, unfortunately it is a difficult place to get too and the tracks are not used very often. Anomity 19:36, 25 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose - too grainy --Pumbaa 20:05, 25 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Support - the image itself is good but the uniqueness of the weather(lack of snow) is more interesting than the image. For this alone the image has the potential to become a significant artifact on climate change. Gnangarra 08:13, 26 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
