•  Support Outstanding mood, light and superior quality. --Tuxyso (talk) 12:39, 5 June 2014 (UTC)
•  Oppose Colors have been boosted to a great extent which makes the image, perhaps pretty and eye-catchy. I have to say no, as I would rather like to see a landscape as natural as possible --Dey.sandip (talk) 07:27, 6 June 2014 (UTC)

•  Support Overprocessed? Probably. Does it still work as a result? I think so. — Julian H.^✈(talk/files) 08:27, 7 June 2014 (UTC)
•  Comment The colors here are not boosted; they are even a bit muted actually. Even the rgb histogram suggests rather balanced than saturated colors. Except the sunrise red on the clouds. Yet this red cast is natural, can't help with that. It seems to me the oversaturation problem is probably related to Internet Explorer's inability to interpret color profiles embedded to the pictures. The only way I see the oversaturation here is with IE, the other browsers I tried (Firefox, Chrome, Safari, Konqueror) show, similarily to each other, smoother colors here. No plans of starting a browser war, it's just what I found when browsing this photo on 3 different computers. Amadvr (talk) 06:35, 8 June 2014 (UTC)
•  Oppose Processed until it becomes fake. --Graphium 05:02, 10 June 2014 (UTC)
•  Support That's the problem with the high performance of today's image processing software: If we see a scene that looks too beautiful to be true, we instantly suspect that there was heavy post-production involved. And often it is, but even that's not necessarily a bad thing: More often than not, a camera is simply not able to reproduce what the human eye would have seen, making PP a necessary tool in order to get a picture that resembles "reality". So, at which point does an image become "overprocessed"? It's difficult to draw the line, especially if you weren't there when the picture was taken. In the end the question is: "Do I belive the photographer that his/her work resembles what s/he saw at that moment?". After careful consideration, for me the answer is: "Yes, I do". Interestingly, for me it's getting far less surreal when when viewed at full resolution. --El Grafo (talk) 09:42, 10 June 2014 (UTC)

• @El Grafo: My definition of "overprocessed" is if the (processed) photo does not represent reality. If the reality was not captured in the unprocessed photo and lots of processing has to be done to show the reality, it's fine with me. Anyways, how is that "overprocessed", and I wouldn't know how much processing had been done as well by the original creator. --Graphium 10:18, 11 June 2014 (UTC)

• @Graphium: Sorry if I didn't express myself clearly enough: that was a purely rhetorical question and it seems like we have the same answer to it (does the picture show reality?). In cases like this, where we both weren't there, it boils down to (not) believing the judgement of the author. I do, you obviously don't, and that's perfectly fine imho.
