Jurasic park water ride[edit]

Original - Shown is the final 85ft drop on Jurassic Park River Adventure, Islands of Adventure, Universal Orlando. The size and scale of the ride complex can also be seen to the upper left of the image. The surrounding area has all been landscaped for the specific purpose of setting the scene to the ride showing the immense amount of detail and work put into creating such an attraction.
Reason
An image of good size and quality, the subject is well captured from both technical and creative angles. The image itself adds greatly to the article as it sets the scene better than words can.

  • Oppose - There are some technical problems. I see some fuzziness and it is very unclear, the clarity of the people falling, where the true EV is, lacking. Sorry, —Sunday | Speak 21:58, 24 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  • Oppose - sorry Childzy, the composition is good and I like the subject, but as noted above it's not sharp and there are a few problems with perspective. At thumbnail it works fine, but that's not what we're judging. —Vanderdeckenξφ 17:44, 25 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose - I agree with the comments above. The shot was not fast enough, so there's apparently some camera shake. Also, many parts of the picture are not focused correctly. Nice image, but when seen in full resolution there are some unfortunate distortions. Luca (talk) 18:14, 25 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose I'm also going to have to oppose...the picture at first looked like a detailed sketch of the water ride, and sharpness and noise are definitely issues. SpencerT♦C 00:04, 26 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose for the reasons above. It does bring me back to when i was there years and years ago though. Noodle snacks (talk) 09:36, 26 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
