Comment A serene scene, but a bit unbalanced. The tree is almost exactly at the right 1/3 point, which requires some visual weight on the left to prevent it from becoming too right-heavy; unfortunately, the background vegetation is also on the right. I would crop out some of the left for better balance. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 18:07, 29 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose to prevent speedy promotion unless the issue with the composition is fixed. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 20:49, 31 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
weak support I don't think your post processing does justice to your photos (too contrasty, too noisy, which is a shame for a D800@ISO200...). How sad because the setting is gorgeous. - Benh (talk) 19:58, 29 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Conditional support per King's suggestion. Alternatively to it, I might crop out most of the reflected trees on the right so as to make the tree's solitude more apparent. Daniel Case (talk) 20:08, 29 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Support I really like the crop the way it is. With regard to the strong level of contrast, I'd support the request to re-process the image. --Frank Schulenburg (talk) 04:06, 30 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Support Strongly agree with Benh, this is magical but can be so much more so --Muhammad (talk) 09:37, 31 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Support Would suggest to check the post-processing (see Benh’s remark and KoH’s ideas), but I still like this photo very much. --Aristeas (talk) 16:27, 31 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Support Yes, it's a little noisy, but for a 43mpx photo with such a stunning composition, it's OK for me. Cmao20 (talk) 19:30, 31 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
