•  Comment The color temperature difference between the sunlight and the shade make it look rather strange. And it looks a tad overprocessed. Calibas 06:57, 31 January 2008 (UTC)
•  Comment As with many landscape photos, the tremendous dynamic range in this scene was beyond the Nikon D70's native ability to accutately record the scene. To control it I chose to use a Hi Tech 3 stop hard graduated neutral density filter over the sky to enable a single exposure. Since this was a tripod shot, I might have tried two successive exposures (one for sky and one for water) and made a composite in Photoshop. I opted to use the GND filter since the light was changing very fast and to minimize post processing. This filter served to darken and slightly increase the color saturation of the sky (and darken some treetops) but rendered the photo very close to what was visible to my eye. The post processing in this particular shot was limited to cropping out filter holder vignetting and a minor levels adjustment.Chuck Szmurlo19:54, 31 January 2008 (UTC)

•  Oppose I'm afraid I'm going to have to oppose for the unnatural-looking colours. They seem oversaturated, and I'm dubious about the way the reflection of the mountainside is yellowish whereas the mountainside itself is orange. Reflections are of lesser intensity than the original, but shouldn't be a different colour. (This is more noticeable at full size). --MichaelMaggs 09:17, 3 February 2008 (UTC)
•  Oppose I'm unconvinced on the colour/saturation issues. Lycaon 06:30, 4 February 2008 (UTC)

•  Support The scene looks convincing to me. I've been places similar to this with this kind of lighting. Given the limits of the technology (dynamic range), I don't know what else we expect. -- Ram-Man 22:38, 5 February 2008 (UTC)
•  Support Nice usage of graduated filter . Andreas Tille 13:23, 8 February 2008 (UTC)
