•  Info created and uploaded by Isiwal - nominated by User:Ikan Kekek -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 07:04, 12 July 2016 (UTC)
•  Support - Just a touch smaller than 6MP, but in my opinion a well-taken photo of an unusual and striking rock formation on the seacoast. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 07:04, 12 July 2016 (UTC)
•  Support This was on my FPC queue, too. --Code (talk) 08:07, 12 July 2016 (UTC)

•  Support Are you sure you did not make this out of Play-Doh? :) The little "window" is what makes it interesting and also the grass tuft mimmicing the shape of the rock. Some of the grey rocks to the bottom left are a bit bright, but I can live with that. w.carter-Talk 09:35, 12 July 2016 (UTC)

• Mild  Oppose The way the tuft of grass partially obscures the window in the rock formation bothers me a little. INeverCry 17:36, 12 July 2016 (UTC)

•  Comment - Though I'm OK with that, your objection is certainly sensible. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 00:37, 13 July 2016 (UTC)

•  Support Sort of evokes The Seven Pillars of Wisdom in Wadi Rum in reverse. A bit smaller than I'd like, but it'll do. Is that entry artificial? Daniel Case (talk) 02:41, 13 July 2016 (UTC)
•  Support Cut suggested (see note), overdenoising,  Underexposed a bit, and could be nice add a element to know the real size of this nature monument. --The Photographer (talk) 02:54, 13 July 2016 (UTC)

• Isiwal, any thoughts on The Photographer's remarks? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 03:22, 13 July 2016 (UTC)

Thanks a lot to Ikan Kekek for nomination and all the reviews. I respect The Photographer´s remarks: denoising could be a tad less (but the rock itself has that soft appearance because of weathering), brightness could be a bit higher. I reduced the original exposure in Lightroom for 1/2 aperture because on some monitors the picture looked palish. The width of sky could be a bit less. The composition is that way because there is a wall at the left lower corner - one can see the remaining white spot - I would prefer to remain in the original width-to-height ratio - don´t know where 7px of height got lost. The size of the rock is not that big - watch the person behind the grass, the window seems to be natural. The creative leeway on disillusioning location is limited but this should not apologize anything or have an impact on review. --Isiwal (talk) 09:43, 13 July 2016 (UTC)
