Rapids and bridge near Lake Superior in Duluth, Minnesota
  • First, the other pic you mention is taken in fall, which obviously accounts for the reddish leaves ; second, IMHO your better pic is strongly oversaturated, whereas the present one is just natural. Here, the green patches of grass are brilliant green, as they should be, and not glow-in-the-dark-fluo-green. The foliage is a muted darker green, and the stones and water are in shades of pinkish and blueish grey. Not that a slight white balance tuning wouldn't be useful, I've not checked into that. But the dull colors argument doesn't make the cut. (did I say IMHO? No? Ok, here it is: IMHO). --MAURILBERT (discuter) 13:25, 27 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Well that is why i wrote "something a bit closer closer". It IS oversaturated and the green is unnatural, yeah. What I wanted to say is that the green in your picture - YES it IS brilliant - but it is the same green and the stones are the same grey all over the picture. The place is good but a different light might be much better. Fog might make it better (making it more hmm.. how to say that... "plastic?" even with these colors) as well as a sunny day (a picture of some similar valley taken at clear day was few days ago nominated). --Aktron (talk) 14:59, 27 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
