  • Support. The sunset is beautiful. A shoreline would be nice, yes, but the sky and palm tree silhouette are fantastic. --Barfooz 06:09, 18 Nov 2004 (UTC)

  • Support. Normally I am not too much into sunset over sea type pictures, but this one is quite nice. Janderk 08:32, 18 Nov 2004 (UTC)

  • Comment - The sky is a bit too grainy don't you think? Is this due to jpeg compression or was this in the original? Would you be able to upload one with a less grainy sky? Enochlau 06:46, 19 Nov 2004 (UTC)
The print of this picture is less grainy, but smaller as well (13x10cm, ca. 5x4in.). I did not scan the photography but got a cd with digitised images from the photo lab where they developed the film - the original for this version is grainy too; the compression did not add significant artifacts. The reason could be, that I used a 400 ASA film. --Tsui 01:29, 20 Nov 2004 (UTC)
