Neutral Beautiful composition, i love it, however, a bit tight on bottom and right. --The Photographer 11:47, 9 May 2017 (UTC)
Oppose Doesn't stand out from other pictures of wind turbines at sunset IMO. Daniel Case (talk) 21:30, 9 May 2017 (UTC)- Oppose Per Daniel; Also, this photograph has a very low resolution (1,024 × 681 pixels), and despite it being from 2005, the significant clipping around the sun, among other factors, don't make up for it. Sorry. WClarke 23:03, 10 May 2017 (UTC)
- Oppose (formerly FPX) Image does not fall within the guidelines, it is smaller than the minimum size of 2 megapixels. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 04:47, 11 May 2017 (UTC)
Comment I looked at the original Flickr page for the file and the original resolution was 3008x2000. However back in 2007 it seems the 1024px version was uploaded to Commons. I have added this higher resolution now and removed the FP close so that those that voted can reconsider based on other factors. I personally feel the composition is quite good and that the subject is something important to feature, but I get the feeling this shot could be done...better... seb26 (talk) 00:35, 12 May 2017 (UTC)- Comment - Now that it's big enough, I oppose it based on the weird-shaped sun-blowout area that feels to me like a picture of a nova, the strange greenish blotch some way to its left and higher, and because it has to compete in Category:Sunsets, one of the strongest on Commons, though admittedly, also in Category:Wind farms, which is not nearly so strong. However, I would suggest at least two pictures of wind turbines at sunset with neater compositions than this one: File:Bạc Liêu windpower farm.jpg, although its FP nomination didn't succeed and I voted against, and File:Zwei WKA auf der Neutscher Höhe.JPG, which I don't think would pass here, either, but is pretty simple in basic conception. So, essentially per Daniel. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 04:16, 12 May 2017 (UTC)
- Oppose As per Daniel. -- Pofka (talk) 11:35, 12 May 2017 (UTC)
- Oppose The overexposed blob which is the sun has a weird shape. Nothing wrong with having the sun blow out, but it should do so gracefully with a smooth transition and minimal false color. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 05:45, 13 May 2017 (UTC)
