Transantarctic Mountains[edit]

Transantarctic Mountains, Northern Victoria Land, as viewed near Cape Roberts
  • Resolution, composition, clarity. Always catches my eye. (I have it set as my desktop background, too.) Need opinion about possible compression artifacts near the top of the image. (Or is that the innate pixelation/noise?) Otherwise, looks good to me.
  • Appears in Transantarctic Mountains. By User:Hgrobe ("Hannes Grobe, Alfred Wegener Institute for Polar and Marine Research, Germany").

Comments:

  • Yes, heavy artifacting, and not only all over the sky, but also in the lower left hand corner (the snow in shadow). And I have doubts about enc/composition: what exactly are the transantarctic mountains? is it the pile of rock in the lower right-hand corner? or are they the mountains in the distance? if the latter, then the main subject is too small and unsharp, while the pile of rock that is (more or less) in focus is distracting. A pretty landscape, but for FP, there are quality and enc concerns. --Malachirality 02:11, 3 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I see. Thanks for your comments. I just wish the taker could upload a clean version. Saravask 16:27, 3 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
