The Paddle Steamer Waverley moored at Swanage in the UK in evening light. The PS Waverley is the last remaining seagoing paddle steamer.
Well, the image is QI already. It was not me, who promoted it, which means that at least two people believe that the quality is fine. :), and besides we do not have nearly enough boats featured--Mbz1 (talk) 16:31, 11 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I might be of some assistance in that department. Sarcastic ShockwaveLover (talk) 22:14, 11 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
It was me who promoted it. It is a good QI, but for FP it's lacking that little extra. Maybe if the sun cam from the left and lit the whole vessel, but as it is I have to  Oppose, sorry. -- H005 06:30, 12 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Comment Overall a nice image, I especiaaly like that I can see the creases in the metal plates along the bow :-). I think the image as a whole is properly exposed, but it needs the sun a little further around to light up the stern section, the paddle wheel and the lower parts of the hull. As it was berthed, perhaps a stitched photo would be a possibility to give the resolurtion desired by others. --Tony Wills (talk) 22:36, 13 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
