Info all by me -- Jebulon (talk) 12:27, 5 July 2015 (UTC)
Support The Pointe du Hoc, one of the major battle sites of the D-Day, june 6, 1944, as it is nowadays.-- Jebulon (talk) 12:27, 5 July 2015 (UTC)
Oppose The bush or whatever in the foreground at the bottom is disturbing. Then the light situation is not that good - maybe a photo of this object taken on a sunny day could become FP. This one looks a little bit flat and dark. Sorry, but I can't support this nomination. --Code (talk) 13:00, 5 July 2015 (UTC)- Oppose No wow... --Tomascastelazo (talk) 01:43, 7 July 2015 (UTC)
Comment It's a historical place, it needs no other wow I suppose. But it's a little dark, I agree. Jebulon, could you provide an alternative? --Tremonist (talk) 13:01, 7 July 2015 (UTC)
- Thanks for review, interest and comment. No, I'll not provide any alternative, sorry. I'm by religion against the (so-called) alternatives, because here it is FP, not a photo workshop (shortly said). The picture has to be good as it is when nominated here, by respect for the reviewers (only my poor opinion). Yes, it is a little dark, but first I don't understand why "a photo of this object taken on a sunny day could become FP", FP should not be only for oversaturated pictures, with harsh (filtered) blue skies. Second, the weather was so when the US Rangers climbed the cliff, june 6th 1944.--Jebulon (talk) 15:00, 7 July 2015 (UTC)
