  •  Comment - It's expected for people making opposing votes to give a reason for it. It's fine for you to give the reason in Vietnamese, as people who don't read Vietnamese can get a rough idea of what you meant by using Google Translate. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 00:08, 3 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Rất khó để phân biệt các thành phần thuộc bức hình.
It is difficult to distinguish the components of the picture.Goodmorninghpvn (talk) 13:58, 3 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
 Question Pardon me, do I get this right: You cannot distinguish the excavator from the soils? The black excavator is camouflaged in the background? It would be interesting to hear, what exactly is the problem in your opinion. --CEphoto, Uwe Aranas (talk) 16:30, 3 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Support - I really like this photo, with all the different-colored strata and interesting machines, but please consider making it less hazy, if that's not unrealistic in terms of what you saw. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 00:07, 3 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I applied a little bit dehaze. However, when I was standing at the open cast mines crater rim, I alredy noticed that the different colours were more pastel-colours and looked quite soft. --CEphoto, Uwe Aranas (talk) 05:05, 3 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Subtle but good improvement, though it's still pretty hazy. Better composition with the new crop, too. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 06:14, 3 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Neutral A bit hazy for me, and I think the colors are not contributing to the image in terms of hue but rather in their luminosity alone, so I think it would work very well if you converted to B&W and with some careful postprocessing to bring out the contrast. --King of 00:14, 3 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I tried your proposal. However, it turned out, that B/W is not working at all with this motif as soon as the pastel-colours are gone. --CEphoto, Uwe Aranas (talk) 05:11, 3 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Oppose I like the colors of the dirt and the horizontal layering, but I would've preferred a tighter crop at bottom and more room at top to prevent some trees and buildings from getting cut off as they are in the middle. INeverCry (talk) 00:29, 3 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I applied a different bottom crop. For the top crop: No more space available and I wanted to focus the photo on the pastel-coloured earths. --CEphoto, Uwe Aranas (talk) 05:05, 3 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
