This image has been leading Sunset for almost three years now and was chosen for its encyclopaedic value, among a set of excellent images, after a long discussion (see here). I believe it finally deserves the FP status.

  • Support. Decent pic and I agree with showing the actual sun disappearing, (the action) vice the alternates that are after sunset. Hope we do not have a bazillion similar shots featured.TCO (Reviews needed) 15:04, 1 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support This is a great sunset pic, not just a sunset. Conditions were good and someone was lucky to be there with a good camera and knowledge of photography ;) --Paolo Costa 21:43, 2 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
