Oppose Not quite there IMO - there appears to be a lot of noise (if my understanding of the term noise is correct) on the lighthouse and in the hazy background. Basically if you view at full size and then zoom in there's lots of very clear pixels rather than nice smooth shadows or lighting... gazhiley 12:30, 15 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Support as nominator of image for FPC at commons, and a member of the WLM USA 2012 jury who liked it. Daniel Case (talk) 16:18, 16 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Weak support. The article is specifically about the lighthouse (not exactly sure why it's just called light), and while this is an attractive picture with acceptable (not great) quality it doesn't show the lighthouse in its entirety. However it does put it in its context, so some points for that. --jjron (talk) 09:58, 17 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

"Light" is apparently the official terminology, used by the maintaining agencies and enthusiasts alike. Daniel Case (talk) 17:51, 17 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I figured as much, but unfortunately it's not the terminology used in the article. Perhaps a modification to allow for a generalist audience on WP, but then why not make the same modification for the article name? --jjron (talk) 01:21, 18 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I guess you'd have to take it up with the lighthouse project, or edit the article appropriately so it uses "light" consistently. In any event, this issue is beyond the scope of this discussion. Daniel Case (talk) 20:10, 18 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Which is why I put it as a parenthetical side-comment not relevant to my !vote. ;) --jjron (talk) 23:59, 18 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Weak support It's not the best image we've had of a place, but it's pretty good. Adam Cuerden ^(talk) 15:56, 19 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
