Info --Uploaded a levels and contrast corrected version. Man, the rendering of your camera looks weird, with washed out colors and contrast. Check the presets (Picture Styles) in the menu. Sting (talk) 18:47, 2 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Support I like this one best of these parasailing pictures so far ... he looks like he's sailing or surfing on the landscape. Daniel Case (talk) 22:58, 2 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose No Wow at all, technically pretty weak --Wolfgang Moroder (talk) 08:52, 3 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose because: [1] Unfortunate angle of view, the gliders shape is irritating (appears like an upright surfing sail). [2] Boring centered composition, too static for a fast moving object (crop suggestion added). [3] Cut of horizon does not at all appeal to me (may be a matter of taste). [4] Posterization and red shadows in the clouds. [5] Noisy sky and background, looking as if it the noise even had been sharpened. --Kreuz schnabel 09:40, 4 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Info I uploaded a reworked version with the same corrections but on a 16 bits base. Still working on the original jpeg file ;-). And still no sharpening applied. Reduced noise in the sky. For what's about “red shadows in the clouds”, you may want to check the color value of those pixels because there is no red dominant, only what may appear as an optical illusion where more neutral tones appear to have the complementary color of their more vivid neighbour.

Weak Support The angle of view could be better. --Zcebeci (talk) 18:51, 4 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose I don't like the angle and composition. I would definitely prefer that crop suggestion. Kruusamägi (talk) 20:05, 4 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
