Support The other picture in the article also shows the entrance of the tomb, which would increase EV. However: 1. I see some technical difficulty in properly exposing the day-lit surroundings and the shaded/dark part of the corridor (maybe HDR could do the trick); 2. The "wow-effect" in this photo urged me to click the article, which is important; 3. This photo is technically sound (has the sharpness and the depth of field required in this case). --Ebertakis (talk) 21:18, 6 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Support - It is technically sound. I'm not sure if this is the full tomb, but I'll support on the assumption that it is. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 01:40, 7 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
