- Comment Hmm. It's a great subject but I find the light a little strange (dark?). --cart-Talk 20:31, 10 May 2017 (UTC)
- Support - To me, this is terrific! -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 20:38, 10 May 2017 (UTC)

- Oppose Sorry, but for me this is not extraordinary. I have done similar shots such as File:Fagus sylvatica Herbstlaub 01.JPG and never considered the subject as FP worthy. --Uoaei1 (talk) 13:06, 11 May 2017 (UTC)
- Comment - I (mis?)understand that you consider this entire category of photographs unfeaturable, regardless of composition, but my observation would be that whereas the photo you linked has a random composition to my eyes (I hope it's not insulting to say that, as it does have some very good qualities, including the way shades of light are captured on the leaves), in this photo, the trees all appear to meet in the middle, where there is a narrow space of sky. So I would submit that the composition of this photo is vastly superior, which might make your comparison nearly irrelevant except to anyone who agrees with you(? sorry if I've misunderstood) that a view looking up to the sky amidst the trees is per se unfeaturable. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 21:00, 11 May 2017 (UTC)
- Comment - Just a little hint concerning perspective geometry: If you look along the direction of parallel objects, they can't do anything but appear to meet in infinity - in the so called 'vanishing point'. Nonetheless: it needs someone to see and picture it. --PtrQs (talk) 23:05, 16 May 2017 (UTC)
- Yes, and they have to be there. I do know a bit about vanishing points, as my father was a painter and a professor and lecturer of some note. Perspective was never my strong point, though. I understand the arabesque, and I understand foreshortening, but I couldn't make the kinds of geometric perspective diagrams my father did with his hands in front of a painting we were looking at. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 09:08, 17 May 2017 (UTC)
