  • Comment: Surely EV is damaged by the absence of a mention of fog? It's such a prominent feature of the image. Seegoon (talk) 18:11, 16 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for your comment. I added a link to the article to the image's caption.--Mbz1 (talk) 18:21, 16 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak support'. I don't notice any significant technical flaws, but it seems too tightly cropped at the bottom right, without much room between the edge of the subject and the edge of the frame. The fog is nice, though.--ragesoss (talk) 02:57, 17 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
It was all but impossible to have a different crop because of the cliff on the left. I tried to take the same image from a diffrent vontage point (Golden Gate Bridge), but the bridge is too shaky from moving cars, hard to take panoramas.--Mbz1 (talk) 03:16, 17 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support A couple of very small DOF errors in trees below and to left of the sailboat in bay behind the ridge, but they are so small they aren't worth worrying about... My only major issue is that the road markings are the wrong way around, but that may have more to do with y'all driving on the wrong side of the road...  ;-) Gazhiley (talk) 10:04, 17 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
