•  Question Umm, what is with the giant line of fog(?) obscuring the bridge in the middle of a sunny day? Sarcastic ShockwaveLover (talk) 13:25, 13 August 2009 (UTC)
  • Also, why does the man with the black shirt and glasses on the far right have a twin following him? And what is that he (they?) is/are holding? Sarcastic ShockwaveLover (talk) 13:43, 13 August 2009 (UTC)

Sometimes the fog (tule fog) is going over the Bay and the bridge looks like it is the bridge over the fog and not the bridge over the Bay. In my opinion it creates some interesting and unusual contrast between the sunny beach and the fog over the Bay. The man you'te asking about is holding a special tool to throw balls for dogs.--Two+two=4 (talk) 14:16, 13 August 2009 (UTC)

•  Oppose -- Yiyi (talk) 14:10, 13 August 2009 (UTC)

I wonder why?--Two+two=4 (talk) 14:16, 13 August 2009 (UTC)

Come on, it's not that hard to state a reason for opposing. I really consider it the most basic level of politeness. -- JovanCormac 14:50, 13 August 2009 (UTC)

Your vote will not be counted without a valid reason (see header above). ZooFari 17:40, 13 August 2009 (UTC)

In my opinion this photo is no wow... That's all... -- Yiyi (talk) 19:14, 13 August 2009 (UTC)

Ah, well please specify next time. ZooFari 19:15, 13 August 2009 (UTC)

Just want to point out that oppose votes with no reasoning are counted. It may be rude to not give a reason, but there is no explicit rule stating that it makes the vote null. Maedin\^talk 07:24, 14 August 2009 (UTC)

•  Neutral Very unusual picture, though a little color adjustment couldn't hurt (observe the boy with the red shirt by the water about 1/4 from the left of the picture; that red is definitely too much). -- JovanCormac 14:50, 13 August 2009 (UTC)
•  Neutral - I like the fog in contrast with the sunny beach, but the colors do feel off. Too red? Jonathunder (talk) 15:03, 13 August 2009 (UTC)
•  Support It is a very unusual shot with the fog bank over the sea, but I like it. I think the man with the ball swinger is in the panorama twice due to the distance he walked in between your shots, which makes this even more remarkable for me - very true representation, and hence why panorama's are quite difficult to do when there are moving subjects involved. Slightly over saturated [toward red], IMO, but not so much that I would oppose it. Julielangford (talk) 15:29, 13 August 2009 (UTC)

•  Oppose No wow IMO. —kallerna™ 16:49, 13 August 2009 (UTC)
•  Oppose Stitching problems. A walking person has been cloned. A wave is half cut. Thierry Caro (talk) 19:24, 13 August 2009 (UTC)

At last a valid oppose reason! I will work with the image and for now  --Two+two=4 (talk) 19:29, 13 August 2009 (UTC)

•  Comment You might want to add the information about the fog to the image description. It's a major part of the picture, and for those of us not based in San Francisco (which is most of the world) it'd be nice to have the phenomena explained. Sarcastic ShockwaveLover (talk) 09:53, 14 August 2009 (UTC)

I did.--Two+two=4 (talk) 13:45, 14 August 2009 (UTC)

Result: 3 support, 3 oppose, 2 neutral => withdrawn. Maedin\talk 09:10, 15 August 2009 (UTC)
