The Cape Town suburb of Hout Bay as seen from Chapman's Peak.

This is my first featured pictures nomination. I took this photograph at sunset of the Cape Town suburb of Hout Bay. Not only is it a beautiful photograph, but it shows the topography and geological featured of the Cape Town area, as well as giving a good illustration of the suburb and its location.

  • Oppose. Not enough detail to make it special. Lots of compression artifacts as well. --Dschwen 09:55, 9 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose. I'm sure the original view was spectacular, but I'm afraid the photo just can't convey it. Stephen Turner (Talk) 10:14, 9 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose. Very interesting geography, as you say, but it's hard to capture something like that in a photo. bcasterline t 18:39, 9 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose. As per above. Alr 18:41, 9 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose. Hazy and blurry, should have been sharper with better colors. Also not artistically significant. This kind of pictures should be striking. This one isn't. abelson 11:53, 10 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose - I'm not really fond of foggy pictures. --Lewk_of_Serthic contrib talk 02:18, 11 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
