Info Tatev monastery during sunset, Syunik Province, southeastern Armenia. The Armenian Apostolic monastery, built in the 9th century, hosted in the 14th and 15th centuries one of the most important Armenian medieval universities, the University of Tatev, which contributed to the advancement of science, religion and philosophy, reproduction of books and development of miniature painting.

Support - Cutoff of the pylon on the left is slightly annoying to me, but no way would I withhold a support vote over something that's so trivial in the context of a big panorama like this. It's amazing how picturesque the locations of many monasteries in Armenia are! -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 16:51, 31 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Weak Support, some unsharpness in various areas due to either motion blur or corner falloff but still very nice. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 22:03, 31 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Comment The scenary is fantastic and the the monastery looks very good, but also slightly artificial. I feel the image is slightly oversaturated, and the chroma noise in the clouds supports this. I am not bothered by the motion blur in some of the vegetation. It is not important for the overall visual impression of the image. -- Slaunger (talk) 00:42, 1 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Will look into the raw file tomorrow, Slaunger, but I don't really feel that it is oversaturated. Will surely reduce the noise Poc o² 16:39, 1 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose composition; gondola, electric cables, church. They dont go together. --Mile (talk) 08:22, 1 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Neutral I like it very much in general. But in details, some things prevent me to support. Slaunger is right, Mile too. I think the site can wait some years, until the end of the restauration work...--Jebulon (talk) 15:42, 2 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Comment I just uploaded a new version with following rework: increase of contrast, tilt, noise reduction and left crop. Poc o² 19:59, 2 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Neutral Things I don't like: lighting, tones, vegetation, construction and point of view. Especially on the last point I very strongly feel this is not the best angle available, down the road to the left provides a more pcituresque composition within a single frame (not that I have anything against panoramas). The reason I'm voting neutral instead of oppose is I'm planning to upload a pic on the same subject when time permits the ps work to be done, and opposing this just feels wrong. :) KennyOMG (talk) 22:05, 2 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
