Oppose The peak is somewhat soft, the foreground too prominent in the frame, and the people in the foreground somewhat distracting. Is this one of those impossible-to-retake shots? The image does have good EV. --Wingtipvorte^X PTT ∅ 18:40, 13 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose I don't mind the foreground so much, but the people just seem random. A posed person for scale isn't a bad thing, but they seem to serve no purpose. – Kerαunoςcopia^◁_galaxies 22:01, 14 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Why it's relevant if he's posed or not? Scale is scale. Tomer T (talk) 08:23, 15 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  - They seem random in a desolate landscape, as opposed to, say, the photograph at the top of the Schilthorn, where there would naturally be people (there are even park benches in the frame). Here, they look like they almost strolled into the shot. Also, I should've mentioned that the image seems a bit hazy, which can be cut through somewhat. – Kerαunoςcopia^◁_galaxies 18:08, 15 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
