•  Oppose --Very nice and dramatic picture and lightning. Some vignetting, but... upscaling the image 14.5 times its original size was the worst idea that could have been made. Sting (talk) 00:56, 20 February 2009 (UTC)
  • Upsacaling ? Whatever gave you that idea? --Richard Bartz (talk) 02:59, 20 February 2009 (UTC)
    • Right. I was put in mistake by the first version of the upload (1024px size, which I like much more). Whatever, it doesn't seem to be its original size (max 3,872 x 2,592 px caption) and the HDR processing made a mess. Sting (talk) 13:55, 20 February 2009 (UTC)
•  Oppose Noise. --S. Martín (talk) 08:30, 20 February 2009 (UTC)

Thank you for nominating this image. Unfortunately, it does not fall within the Guidelines and is unlikely to succeed for the following reason: the image is heavily artefacted

Anyone other than the nominator who disagrees may override this template by changing {{FPX}} to {{FPX contested}} and adding a vote in support. Voting will then continue in the usual way. If not contested within 24 hours, this nomination may be closed.
