Fountain of Pahoehoe lava

Reason: Looks like a scan of a print or a negative, but there is a lot of dirt on it, especially to the immediate right of the spouting lava. Granted, some of it might be lava fragments, but I think these are scanning artifacts.

Comment Perhaps the dirt can be edited out? (Strange how nobody edits the delistees…)--Here T oHelp 01:14, 29 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

At the original nomination, the pic was heavily edited in order to arrive at the current version. I vote Keep since it's a unique pic and there are not that many other volcano pics of similar quality. Jumping cheese ^Cont@ct 06:52, 29 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Very good image and VERY very hard to catch. It has a free licence too. Who's going to risk to take such a photo? Plus the quality is OK (I agree it might not be FP quality but quality is not the only criteria here). And to HereToHelp, I always try to see if I can help "delistees" and edit them but mostly, the "delistess" are far too small or very bad quality. In this case, it doesn't even need an edit. --Arad 20:43, 30 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, per Arad. I think the dirt is likely to be spashes — Jack · talk · 16:28, Saturday, 31 March 2007
