Great Smoky Mountains[edit]

This picture is on the artice Great Smoky Mountains National Park. It was taken on July 9, 2006 as I was vacationing there. I think that it shows the "smokiness" of the mountains very well and just an over all good picture. What do you think?

This is a nice picture of your vacation, but would get a hard time on FPC. I'm not sure how much this photo shows the 'smokiness' of the mountains, and how much it just shows the quality of the capture. The photo is not sharp at all (I notice you've used a digital zoom according to the metadata - can I suggest that you turn off this feature on any camera you use permanently as you will never get sharp photos using this).

Also, as I said while it's a nice pic of your vacation, to an outside observer what in this photo distinguishes it from a photo of hills anywhere else in the world? i.e., for a Wikipedia photo, honestly how high is its encyclopaedic value? I personally don't like the dark trees in the foreground either, especially the one right in the middle of the photo. And the filename (Gsm100 1547.jpg) could be a bit more descriptive. --jjron 09:41, 31 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
