[edit] 90 mile beach

Images illustrate beach and Lakes Entrance very well.

• Support second image. Great pictures! Sango123 July 7, 2005 20:51 (UTC)
• Support nice pictures. I support the first one. -- WB July 8, 2005 07:49 (UTC)
• Oppose. Sloping horizon on the first image. On the second, were the clouds photoshopped in? Somehow, they don't quite look right, though I can't put my finger on why. —Cryptic (talk) 8 July 2005 23:20 (UTC)/04:51, 10 July 2005 (UTC)
  • I can't find a reason why someone would do that, but yeah, it also occured to me that it looks a bit editted... But then, it might be one of those lens mistakes. -- WB July 9, 2005 07:06 (UTC)
• Support second image. The symmetrical composition is very highly pleasing in this instance. --Deglr6328 04:39, 10 July 2005 (UTC)
• Support the second image. TomStar81 08:42, 10 July 2005 (UTC)
• Support second image, assuming there was no photoshopping -- Chris 73 Talk 09:26, July 10, 2005 (UTC)
• Oppose both. The first is fine, there's nothing particularly wrong with it, but then again, there's nothing special about it. The second is plain boring; yes, it follows the rule of thirds, but there's nothing pleasing about it here. Enochlau 13:02, 10 July 2005 (UTC)
• Oppose both, agree with enochlau. -Lommer | ^talk 05:18, 11 July 2005 (UTC)
• Oppose - just boring (sorry!) - Adrian Pingstone 16:20, 12 July 2005 (UTC)
• Support number two. Reason, the straight lines between sea/sky and sea/beach are striking. Ahkayah cuarenta y siete 22:36, 16 July 2005 (UTC)
• Oppose Both are very nice, but neither seems too special. Number 1 does a good job of illustrating beach, but their placement on tourism with repeated captions is dubious (Image:SunsetBeach.jpg would do better there, since it shows some tourists). Number 2, rather resembles a tricolour, so could make a nice alternative flag of Australia. -- Solipsist 07:00, 19 July 2005 (UTC)
  • I prefer the Union Jack ;) Enochlau 15:55, 21 July 2005 (UTC)
