- Support I like how the photograph illustrates the shape of the iceberg with the dramatic lighting. I think the color of the sea is also quite striking: I suspect this was taken in polar twilight. — hike395 (talk) 11:16, 5 January 2012 (UTC)
- Neutral -- Good composition, the sea is just a little bit strange though. TrebleSeven (talk) 11:24, 5 January 2012 (UTC)
- Support best what the camera can give, good composition, perhaps the colour of the sea could be changed a little bit but I wasn't there --Mbdortmund (talk) 14:03, 5 January 2012 (UTC)
- Question is this a natural color of the sea? Ggia (talk) 14:49, 5 January 2012 (UTC)
- Question I can see penguins ? (See my annotations) --Citron (talk) 15:31, 5 January 2012 (UTC)
- Oppose - unnatural colours. --Claritas (talk) 16:41, 5 January 2012 (UTC)
- Oppose Non-natural colors (as Claritas), dust spot (see note), noise and color noise--Miguel Bugallo 17:02, 5 January 2012 (UTC)
- Oppose As Lmbuga. Water looks more like plow field or mud. Version 2 looks more natural, but it have same broblems noise and color noise. Sorry. –Makele-90 (talk) 18:48, 5 January 2012 (UTC)
These are valid criticisms: the "wine-dark sea" may have been due to image manipulation. I attempted a color rebalance. What do you think of the edit to the right? Note that I am a novice at image editing --- if someone with more expertise can make an attempt, I would appreciate it. — hike395 (talk) 18:35, 5 January 2012 (UTC)
- Oppose It does not add up. I have marked what I would think is about 1 meter on the iceberg, based on the structures in the snow. Thus, the "penguins" would be waaaaaay too small... and the waves as well. Then there's the background and water's color that absolutely does not fit to the iceberg. If you ask me: That picture is totally fake. --Kabelleger (talk) 20:59, 5 January 2012 (UTC)
- Oppose Looks like a fake picture to me.Trongphu (talk) 22:44, 7 January 2012 (UTC)
- Oppose Non-natural colors. –ElmA (Talk – My files – E-mail) 16:01, 8 January 2012 (UTC)
