- Reason
- Not only is this the only picture in Wikipedia that depicts the Tapantí National Park in Costa Rica, but it's also one of the most beautiful depictions of a tropical rain forest in Wikipedia. This picture grabs the viewer's attention and incites him/her to read more about the article. The picture has a relatively high quality and resolution (2080 × 1544 pixel) and any blurriness in the background is caused by the naturally forming fog from the waterfall and the water vapour exhaled by the trees and wet ground (not to mention that it was raining the day the picture was taken).

- Oppose This picture has alot of potential if it is taken properly. That waterfall catches my eye but its depiction isnt very good. Overall, the picture has bad composition and I really hate the fog. I find it takes away from the picture. --Midnight Rider 02:58, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
- Actually we have to put up with the fog if we want an encyclopedic picture of Tapanti. It's a cloud forest. ~ trialsanderrors 08:12, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
- Oppose Bad timing and composition. Generally it is bad to shoot landscapes during the day especially overcast noons, and are best taken dawn or dusk when the dynamic range is much more balanced. Composition wise, I have no idea what you trying to show here, other than a montain with a fall with some foliage close to the camera. --antilivedT | C | G 07:15, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

- Oppose -- The photo has too much of a purplish tint, and the heavy fog just completely ruins it. ~~Eugene2x Sign here ☺ ~~ 22:20, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
