Weak support – won't jusge all technical aspects, but seems to have a good EV, photograph captures all the lake and there doesn't appear to be anything missed out; we have nothing like it. Grandiose (me, talk, contribs) 15:02, 25 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Support there is some image noise but without a doubt this the sheer amazingness of the image outweighs any technical deficiency. Purpy Pupple (talk) 06:05, 26 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Support There's what appears to be chroma noise visible at 100%, but am surprised at that given the low ISO. However, that's pixel-peeping a 12MP image so not really fair. It is a remarkable photo and valuable to have. Colin°^Talk 11:51, 26 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
