•  Support Good image - conveys the scale well. --Herby ^{talk thyme} 13:45, 3 December 2009 (UTC)
•  Oppose For some reason, the photo looks like it was taken with a 1960s camera. I was sure that was the case before looking at the date (2009). This is certainly interesting, but quality concerns are big, and since it isn't "historical" after all I don't see a mitigating reason. -- JovanCormac 18:16, 3 December 2009 (UTC)

• Regretful  Oppose per issues with color noted above. This definitely has encyclopedic value as it conveys a) the scale of the place as effectively for someone like myself who's been there as for someone who hasn't and b) it shows the way most people commonly visit it, in 4WD pickup trucks driven by Bedouins. And it's also a great photo of Jabal Rum, the second-highest mountain in Jordan. However, again from personal experience, I know just how brilliant the colors there can be, and I've got some pics that I hope to make FPC candidates eventually myself. This does not fully convey that. Daniel Case (talk) 17:15, 10 December 2009 (UTC)
