- High resolution and quality. Some other images in the article are brighter but I believe the exposure on this shot is the most realistic, it was taken on a sunny day.

- Support. Excellent detail although it would have been nice to see a bit more of the landscape above and behind the site just to serve as a backdrop. Diliff | (Talk) (Contribs) 16:23, 14 November 2008 (UTC)
- Support I agree with Diliff about more background. Its good to see the image as I didn't make it to the penal colony when in Tasmania earlier in the year. Mfield (talk) 17:32, 14 November 2008 (UTC)
- Support On the thumbnail I agree that it would be nice with some more background, but looking at it full size it doesn't bother me at all. Very nice image, sharp details. —Krm500 (Communicate!) 00:35, 15 November 2008 (UTC)
- Comment There is something weird going on the trees on far rhs for my eyes, looks almost like you were reaching your limit of focus, or am I going crazy? 124.177.18.199 (talk) 01:04, 15 November 2008 (UTC)
- As evidenced by the water it was a pretty windy day, could be movement in the trees although at 1/500th i doubt thats going to be a massive issue. I don't think it was missed focus as the foreground is sharp and the 70-200 rarely misses (like my 18-55 has a tendancy to do). Noodle snacks (talk) 01:12, 15 November 2008 (UTC)
- Support very nice composition. Matt Deres (talk) 02:17, 16 November 2008 (UTC)
- Support, though strikes me as a bit oversaturated, as well as tight at the top as previously mentioned. BTW, you didn't happen to get a decent shot of the convict church did you, which could replace that ordinary photo beside this one in the article? --jjron (talk) 13:48, 17 November 2008 (UTC)
- No on the church, I was there with company so didn't want to spend too long on the camera, in addition when I got to the church the sun was at the wrong angle, I have a feeling perspective might be a problem on a photo (trees nearby). I did however get a two year pass since I plan to go back there with my birding gear (there was quite a bit of stuff there), so I'll probably make another trip and hit the church at the time. I haven't changed the saturation from the neutral on camera default. Noodle snacks (talk) 05:01, 19 November 2008 (UTC)
