Oppose The difference in brightness is very difficult to manage here. The burnt-out lights are disturbing. --Ermell (talk) 07:11, 14 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Looks like a QI but lacks that certain something to impress me. --Peulle (talk) 12:14, 14 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Support I dissent. The image quality is good and I like the light very much. Cmao20 (talk) 17:31, 14 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose the sharpness is good enough, but the harsh light in the background and composition don't quite work for me. I appreciate the idea of balancing the rocks with the tree, but it just feels like the rocks are "facing" left, where there could be more room. — Rhododendrites ^talk | 22:37, 14 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Of course I was hoping for broad support, and of course I think I took the best possible photo under the conditions on site :-) But I am very satisfied with the respectful tone of the critical or rejecting voices. Even if the picture does not become a featured one, I will keep this in good memory. --Superbass (talk) 07:22, 15 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Weak oppose The blown highlights are not very well done. As Ermell says, it's difficult, but a successful trick is to underexpose - not only 1 EV, maybe 4 or 5 EV in that case. Example for comparison. Also mitigated wow factor in my view, but I could have remained neutral if the leaves were not burnt like now -- Basile Morin (talk) 02:33, 16 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose per others. Nice idea, though. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 20:10, 16 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Technical issues per Ermell, but even without them this is just a picture of rocks balanced on each other in the woods that doesn't wow me. Daniel Case (talk) 02:17, 17 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
