Support – shows the subject of the article well (criterion 3). Its use in non-English articles doesn't count though. Bammesk (talk) 03:17, 13 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose - the photo doesn't show the precarious position of the rock very well, I think this [1] gives a better idea of the (un)balance... --Janke | Talk 09:33, 13 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Janke: The other image composition is cluttered with people, the rock is blurry. Overall, the nom image is more striking and higher quality, more worth featuring, IMO. --Tagooty (talk) 15:07, 15 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose - Good quality but doesn't give any clue that this is not just a balanced rock, but half a rock with a clean break on the side away from the camera. ProfDEH (talk) 09:08, 17 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
