Wikipedia:Picture peer review/Kashmir Florist's Shikara Boat

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A florist's shikara boat in Nageen Lake in Srinagar, Jammu and Kashmir.

Although the ends of the boat itself are cropped, the image gives a superb feeling for the entire ambiance: the moss-covered surface of the lake, the channels in the lake, and the nursery areas where some of the flowers are grown, as well as the houses in the background. The image is the work of User:Doniv79, who already has two FPs (the first two on his page). It appears in the article shikara

Comments:

  • Good technical quality and what beautiful flowers! However, I think the composition would prevent if from being a featured picture. It's not just that the ends of the boat are cut off, it's that the boat is at the very bottom of the frame, and looks very crowded. Also, the shadow covering the bottom half of the frame is fairly distracting, as visible as it is on the duckweed (I suspect, rather than moss). Enuja (talk) 21:23, 11 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
