Info created by Dcrjsr - uploaded by Dcrjsr - nominated by Dcrjsr Emigrant Wilderness has only a few places this dramatic, and none of them on trail. For me, the appeal is the accessible route next to the completely vertical granite, as well as the composition. Has map location. -- Dcrjsr (talk) 17:23, 24 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Sorry, the symmetric composition with the dark trees vertically framing the subject does not please me. Nikopol (talk) 00:06, 25 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Now replaced with a cropped version (above). In 3D the trees help emphasize the vertical granite - but I agree that they were too dark and heavy for the 2D composition. I like this version better, and appreciate the comment. Dcrjsr (talk) 04:12, 25 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Support Nice! --High Contrast (talk) 16:57, 25 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Sorry, I never saw your earlier version, but regrettably I do not think the composition has enough wow. Some of it has to do with the dark framing, but that's not all. Can't really explain "what's wrong". Somehow the dramatic scene should just have had a more dramatic composition IMO, and this one has a little too much point-and-shoot character and is somewhat uninteresting. --Slaunger (talk) 19:46, 25 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Support...personally I like the framing, as it sets my focus/attention on the cliffs in the middle the same as if he cropped out the trees. Ks0stm ^(T•C•G) 20:08, 26 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Sorry, the cloud looks blown, and there's not enough wow for me. --99of9 (talk) 12:56, 28 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I do rather like this image. However, after looking at it quite a few times it hasn't quite worked for me. I think the subject is great but the framing which is rather dark takes over from that subject for me. Oppose I'm afraid. --Herby ^{talk thyme} 13:41, 29 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
