Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky[edit]

View of Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky's harbour from Avacha Bay, with Mount Koryasky rising in the background.
Edit #1; Adjusted contrast, hues, rotated 0.3deg CCW, saturation, removed speckling.
Edit #2; Same as #1, without despeckling filters applied. Perhaps can be salvaged by a better pshopper.

Great shot of an interesting part of the world (I've always been curious about what's on that peninsula on the far right of Russia). Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky is the region's main city.

  • Comment: The focus of the image seems to be on the cranes and boats in the foreground, not the actual mountain in the background. --JPM 22:01, 8 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose. Low quality at full size, and the cranes are distracting. Alr 01:27, 9 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose. Not bad, but not exceptional either. Agree about full-size quality. Camerafiend 21:59, 9 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose Weak coloration, dirty, lots of noise. Also the cranes are a bit distracting.. drumguy8800 - speak? 05:09, 10 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • Oppose All. None a particularly exceptional --Fir0002 02:06, 12 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose - brightly colored cranes distract way too much. Flcelloguy (A note?) 23:17, 14 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose. Quality at full res. enochlau (talk) 05:59, 15 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose. And I'm the one who took the picture! My own comment is that it's a great travel snapshot of a little known part of the world, but as a picture and on artistic merits there are many better pictures that take precedent. But hey, thanks for considering it. Vincent (talk) 03:35, 16 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
