•  Support I like this picture and find the view quite impressive. Wonder if you agree. -- Benh 21:34, 17 September 2007 (UTC)

•  Oppose I like it too but unfortunately the snow is overexposed and thus some details are lost --Simonizer 09:54, 18 September 2007 (UTC)

• I think you are right. But I don't think it's that overexposed (that said, it's true it looks brighter at work than at home, may depend on monitor calibration, I'll check mine tonight) and I had to get a compromise with the background. Also, light was coming from behind, so snow was very bright and I believe the picture is true to what I saw. Benh 11:51, 18 September 2007 (UTC)
• I personal find this version much better. The bright snow is not so dominant, the format of the picture suits better, and dark shadow areas of the right mountains are bringing more contrast to the picture. No doubt, i would support it. --Simonizer 10:27, 19 September 2007 (UTC)

•  Neutral for now. It is indeed very good, but after the excellent pano of Mont Blanc, below, the "mountain bar" was automatically raised. Let's wait and see. By the way, the horizon is tilted. Alvesgaspar 09:57, 18 September 2007 (UTC)

• a high bar, but we're talking about mountains after all ;) I'll correct tilt if it's requested (I think it's not that obvious, that's why I prefer not to). Benh 11:51, 18 September 2007 (UTC)

•  Support May it can be make better with some postprocession, but I think enought impressive to FP. --Beyond silence 15:50, 18 September 2007 (UTC)
•  Support  Neutral The snow is very bright, indeed. But don't try to correct it, as it renders the snow brightness very well, with only a few lost of detail. But, please, correct the horizon tilt. -- MJJR 20:35, 18 September 2007 (UTC) -- Tout compte fait, le léger décalage de l'horizon n'influence pas fondamentalement la qualité de l'image, qui mérite certainement d'être promue au rang de FP. Je change donc mon vote en "support". -- MJJR 18:26, 20 September 2007 (UTC)
•  Support --Böhringer 21:48, 18 September 2007 (UTC)
•  Support The only overexposure I can see (through software) is on the two white spots on the backpack of the rightmost climber. Dori | Talk 00:06, 19 September 2007 (UTC)
•  Support Benh, you are on your way to joining the exclusive Meet our photographers club. :-) Freedom to share 06:13, 19 September 2007 (UTC)

Other Version, not featured

•  NeutralI would support this when the tilt is corrected. reason: see my comment above --Simonizer 10:32, 19 September 2007 (UTC)
  •  Support Better format and more contrast, less dominant bright snow --Simonizer 09:24, 22 September 2007 (UTC)

• I'll correct it Friday night (I can't before) and let you see. Among the three flavours of this picture, I had to choose one... I asked my friends, and all the pics had their detractors and supporters. So I chose my favorite :) Benh 21:09, 19 September 2007 (UTC)

• It is not am other version, it's an other photo! Don't need make this an other nomination?--Beyond silence 19:20, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

• I don't think this needs a nomination, it's very close to the other one which I hope will get featured. Maybe I'll nominate this one if the other fails. Benh 21:50, 21 September 2007 (UTC)

 Info I uploaded a tilt corrected version of it (replacing the previous one). It lost the EXIFs because of Hugin I used for correction, but has a higher resolution. Benh 21:50, 21 September 2007 (UTC)
