  • Symbol oppose vote.svg Oppose -- Valuable but not FP. Quality and composition are on the poor side. -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 23:00, 8 June 2010 (UTC)
  • Symbol oppose vote.svg Oppose - ditto to Alvesgaspar; slightly off-level (needs rotating slightly CCW), and rather sordid set of military hardware in the foreground makes it less attractive than a pic with natural landscape ahead of a sandstorm - MPF (talk) 00:39, 9 June 2010 (UTC)
  • Symbol oppose vote.svg Oppose - The sandstorm is impressive indeed but the elements in the foreground are distracting. --Elekhh (talk) 22:52, 9 June 2010 (UTC)
