Oppose - Couple issues with this HDR: Noise, ghosting on the hills, and considerable CA. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:59, 24 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose gorgeous pic as what the IP said, however the HDR is highly visible in this image and the more you zoom in, the noise becomes more and more seen as what Crisco said. ///EuroCarGT 02:27, 25 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
- It is pretty. I see the things Crisco mentioned, now, but I just absolutely love it zoomed out. Perhaps I can speak to the author about the originals that he took and see if he can address the concerns.--v/r - TP 04:25, 25 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  - Looking at his photostream, I see this on Flickr is something better, no noticeable HDR and more details, unfortunately it's copyrighted and the composition isn't same as your nom. ///EuroCarGT 05:12, 25 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    - The copyright isn't a problem, I'm in contact with the author on reddit. He gave the HDR another go, see this one. That one you picked is also a great alternative. He's got some great stuff.--v/r - TP 05:48, 25 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
      - A bit more conservative, yes, but I think the CA is still quite noticeable. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 10:39, 25 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
