- Reason
- I think this is of at least a decent technical standard. It is 3264 by 1840 pixels, so no size issues. Like I said, it is certainly a decent image and streams are underrepresented among FPs. It is under a CC-BY-SA license. This image adds encyclopedic value to Roaring Creek (Pennsylvania), where it is currently the only image. It wasn't created for the purpose of supporting original research. It has an accurate name, description and location data. Finally, the image has not been altered from its original form. All in all, I think it's a great image and it would be great if it became featured.

- Comment - Looks tilted, and the tops of the trees are cut off, making this picture seem more busy than it has to be. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:55, 24 January 2014 (UTC)
- @Crisco 1492: I have corrected the tilt, I think. --Jakob (talk) 00:14, 25 January 2014 (UTC)
- Oppose The trees being cut off really takes away from the image, I also wonder if there is a better/more telling place along the stream to take a photo, where you can see more than just a little portion of it. Mattximus (talk) 17:42, 25 January 2014 (UTC)
- Oppose - It would be more encylopedic had it not been covered in ice. Mundane composition. - hahnchen 00:10, 31 January 2014 (UTC)
- @Hahnchen, Mattximus, and Crisco 1492: Maybe I should try for quality image on Commons instead? --Jakob (talk) 00:32, 31 January 2014 (UTC)
- Maybe you should try taking more pictures instead of shopping for awards. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.222.132.240 (talk) 17:44, 1 February 2014 (UTC)
