Jeeez!!! I actually gasped when I saw this! (Only thing missing are the signal fires... Eat your heart out P.J.) --Cart (talk) 22:35, 1 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Support I like this a lot. Charles (talk) 22:40, 1 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Support - This is great and shows how, by comparison, many photos of mountains lack a really fine composition. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 23:00, 1 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Support I wish you could increase the geographic information content by announcing the names of some of the mountains. --Milseburg (talk) 08:22, 3 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Milseburg Looking at the local tramping map, it's pretty much only 1 named mountain there. Rest of them aren't named. I put a not though to that mountain + a few notes that identify different ranges. Most of mountains here don't have names. --Podzemnik (talk) 10:18, 3 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

* Oppose There is no article in any language about Winterslow Range. This picture is amazing but it doesn't give any more information to the audience. --Gnosis (talk) 21:34, 6 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Gnosis Are you sure that it's a valid reason to oppose? We're not on Wikipedia here, local Featured Pictures don't have much connection to Wikipedia. Whoever wants to find more information, (s)he will. There are GPS coordinates, quite good description and notes. I don't really know what kind of "more information to the audience" you'd like there. Can you give me a hint, please? By the way, there is an article on Cebuano Wikipedia but I don't think that its existence is relevant to this nomination.

@Gnosis: No idea how you came up with that strange notion. Please read rule #7 in Commons:Featured picture candidates#General rules: "7.Remember, the goal of the Wikimedia Commons project is to provide a central repository for free images to be used by all Wikimedia projects, including possible future projects. This is not simply a repository for Wikipedia images, so images should not be judged here on their suitability for that project." The 'future projects' mentioned, includes that if an article about the mountains should be created, there should be a gorgeous photo of them waiting to be used. --Cart (talk) 09:39, 7 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Gnosis: please read the guidelines. This is Commons here, not Wikipedia FPC. The reason given to justify your vote is not valid -- Basile Morin (talk) 11:09, 7 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
