Info Evening sea at Porto Covo, Portugal. Please forgive my insistence on minimalist seasights, but that is really the type of photography I prefer. Also note that this is not a sunset... Created and nominated by Alvesgaspar --Alvesgaspar 15:39, 16 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Support, although it is 'minimalist', indeed... -- MJJR 20:58, 16 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Support ~~Neutral~~ I liked this as a QI, but I'm not sure it has enough of both "wow factor" and technical quality. -- Ram-Man 06:02, 17 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- I'll change to support if you can convince my why it has sufficient encyclopedic value over various other shots like this. -- Ram-Man 23:58, 20 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  - I've changed my own mind. This shows crashing waves and the rocks along the coast, which is encyclopedic. Also, the extreme variation in lighting causes the overexposure, but I'd rather not have a shot later in the day which would further darken the foreground. I'd also not like an overcast day which would improve the foreground colors but the sky would look terrible. Maybe a backlit sky with a bright blue background would be better, but I'm not so sure about that. -- Ram-Man 16:04, 21 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose It lacks a "wow" factor IMO and parts of the sky are overexposed. --Digon3 21:27, 17 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Just the sea and some waves. Seen it a thousand times. Metoc 23:00, 18 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
