•  Neutral I preferred the previous nominations for two reasons: This one is fully backlit with the negative effects of that (clipping, high sky-ground-contrast with low inter-ground-contrast) and the composition, in my opinion, leads to an area on the right of which not enough is visible. — Julian H.^✈(talk/files) 19:27, 6 November 2013 (UTC)
  • Julian, I've worked on the sky (selective NR) and applied some masked sharpening. Do you think it is better now? For sure it is a backlit situation but I do not see real clipping. Backlit is the only way to bring out the nice sun rays inside the Canyon. Just to avoid confusion: The other noms of the Grand Canyon show a very different motive thus they are not really comparable to the one here.
    I hope Alex Florstein, Christian Ferrer, Ivar, Arcalino, Böhringer and Martin Falbisoner are still fine with this image. --Tuxyso (talk) 23:27, 6 November 2013 (UTC)
    •  Comment Did you also work on the wb? Anway, I like the current version even better --Martin Falbisoner (talk) 10:15, 7 November 2013 (UTC)
      • Not on the global WB. I made slight corrections on the sky - a very light local gradient organge filter to let the sky look more than it was on location. --Tuxyso (talk) 10:24, 7 November 2013 (UTC)
        • It's definitely clipped, just not at 100% but at 94.73%, but that doesn't look too different. I'll stick with neutral - I guess this will easily be FP without my support anyway. — Julian H.^✈(talk/files) 15:30, 7 November 2013 (UTC)

•  Support Great image-Godot13 (talk) 02:03, 8 November 2013 (UTC)
•  Request A very nice view, but I'm missing the main informations: is it a HDR-image (from how much images 3,5,7, ..., properties: exposure, aperture, ...) or not ... ??? It will be good to add the relevant informations to the image. I do it as an important info for all other photographers! --Alchemist-hp (talk) 12:14, 8 November 2013 (UTC)
  • Thanks for the hint - the information is useful, for sure. I will add this information later on today. IMHO the name of the template Panorama is a bit unfortunate, but this template is still up to date also for HDR? I've used it e.g. here? --Tuxyso (talk) 12:27, 8 November 2013 (UTC)
    • A {{Retouched}} template can be used too. I did it here: here: Lake Bondhus or better and similar here: Crepuscular rays in Namibia. --Alchemist-hp (talk) 12:52, 8 November 2013 (UTC)
