- Reason
- There were lots of shipwrecks in Point Lonsdale in this period. This is both a good representation of a semi-common event in Point Lonsdale, a nice historic view of Point Lonsdale, and a great example of the photographer's work.
I think that's enough.Also there's an article on the ship now, so... - Articles in which this image appears

- Comment Not sure it adds huge EV to either article. Charlesjsharp (talk) 19:01, 7 January 2024 (UTC)
- Fair, but I think it adds some EV as a good example of the photographer's work, and a good example of the shipwrecks and landscape of the Victorian Point Lonsdale. I'd say this is a strong secondary image, which I'd say is enough, but, y'know, it's a judgement call. Adam Cuerden (talk)Has about 8.7% of all FPs. 19:40, 7 January 2024 (UTC)
