Dinner Plain edit

Dinner Plain is almost deserted during summer

Nice photo, and shows how a ski resort such as this one virtually shut down in the summer months.

Support. The atmosphere comes across perfectly. - Mgm|^(talk) 09:09, 4 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Comment, the picture is awesome, but the article it is used in could use some loving. Right now it is merely a showcase for two pictures. --Dschwen 09:20, 4 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Support, the article has over 2000 words by my count. a picture paints a thousand words. —Pengo 11:33, 4 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Support really should be a boring subject but the sharpness,lighting, background and compisition make it a nice pic. -Ravedave 21:41, 4 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose. I see cheap modern architecture like this every day. Of course a ski resort is empty in the summer. Better to show the stripped slopes bare of snow, as well as of trees. I have larger pictures, if you want to waste the disk space on them. David R. Ingham 04:54, 7 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- There is a difference between seeing a subject (the buildings) in real life and seeing them in a well-done photograph, just as there would be a difference between that and its depiction in a painting. — ₀₉₁₈^BRIAN • 2006-04-08 13:44
Oppose. I do like the colours and arrangement. It's a fairly good photograph but not really out of the ordinary. It doesn't convey the desertedness of a summertime ski village (if that is the purpose) except perhaps as an afterthought - that is, after it has already been pointed out. --Philopedia 14:38, 8 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Support Great quality image, well taken, quite stunning (and definately attractive) to look at - • The Giant Puffin • 16:24, 8 April 2006 (UTC)
Support Absolutely gorgeous. Shred 06:41, 9 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose technically well done image, but it's just not striking, as it looks like any mountain town to me, only the caption would tell me it's a ski resort.
Support Great picture, love it. abelson 11:50, 10 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Support This is the only image I've seen on the page that I actually think is worth FPC so far.. you always have such pretty pictures. drumguy⁸⁸⁰⁰ - speak? 13:08, 12 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. Just for the record, I find it absurdly insane to nominate two pictures of essentially the same subject (see Wikipedia:Featured_picture_candidates/Mt_Hotham_summer) and leave just enough time between them that the first version vanishes from the nomination page. If it weren't for WP:POINT I put this one straight up at Nominations for removal on account of having a better picture of the same subject (Mt. Hotham). This one is pretty, but has no encyclopedic value. So it is a deserted ski resort? Where are the lifts? Oh, on the other picture right! Why are you doing this? Seriously, what was the motivation for nominating both? What was the motivation for the delay inbetween the nominations? --Dschwen 09:15, 15 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
