Fumarole on the island of Vulcano edit

Original - A fumarole is an opening in Earth's crust, often in the neighborhood of volcanoes, which emits steam and gases such as carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide, hydrochloric acid, and hydrogen sulfide. Shown here on Vulcano is a solfatara, a fumarole that is emitting sulfurous gases.

Reason: A fantastic illustration of a solfatara. Vibrant, and interesting, showing deposits of sulphur crystals around the vent. Though it is regrettably slightly fuzzy in full view, it is still detailed and I feel little is lost.

Comment: This is a beautiful photo that I'd happily support on Commons. Here I have concerns about EV, or at least how well we are using it. The image only appears in a gallery in the first two articles cited. It is used more prominently in Fire and brimstone, but there it seems a little tangential. --Avenue (talk) 07:49, 18 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Weak oppose No sense of scale. Papa Lima Whiskey (talk) 09:17, 18 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose per the lack of a sense of scale and especially for the apparent lack of EV, as above. J Milburn (talk) 11:16, 18 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
