  • Support, interesting and detailed. Question: The left edge of the vessel (about 1/4th from right) looks a bit chopped off compared with the other blurry boat edge(s) - is this an artifact of stitching? --Janke | Talk 18:44, 12 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    The horizontal rays of light represent the distance the boat traveled during the exposure. It probably traveled slower / stayed for longer on the left than the right. -- King of ♥ 03:35, 13 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • SupportKoH, there are a couple of odd (sharp) transition lines in the water at around x=7400, I annotated it on Commons. They don't look real to me, are they? Bammesk (talk) 18:54, 12 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose for now Great photo but have to oppose till image is corrected by KoH. Charlesjsharp (talk) 19:14, 12 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Charles, please be "specific" about what you want corrected, in your own words, so there is no ambiguity. Particularly since you are opposing. Bammesk (talk) 19:28, 12 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Same stitching issue as you pointed out. Very easy for KoH to rectify as he's an active participant on Commons. Charlesjsharp (talk) 20:54, 12 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • @Bammesk and Charlesjsharp: I have verified on my source images that this is real and not a stitching error. Maybe it's caused by bright lights creating rays of light and dark? -- King of ♥ 03:32, 13 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
