Support. In spite of some technical defficiencies (unsharp, blown highlights in the flames), this is an amazing sight. As the image description says, it's bigger than it looks... The other image in the article shows just how big it really is. Ðiliff «» (Talk) 10:27, 28 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Support: agree with Diliff, and could now be developed. Grandiose (me, talk, contribs) 10:49, 28 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Support Saw a documentary on this site a few years back - it's an amazing spectacle... This picture does it justice, and is more than eye catching... gazhiley 10:05, 29 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Support To me it looks as big as it shows in Google Maps (roughly size of two basketball court if I'm right). Person on the left helps giving scale. But impressive despite all the flaws listed by Diliff. Caption could be improved ("It's bigger than it looks" isn't very encyclopedic ;) ). - Blieusong (talk) 18:14, 29 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Comment I updated the description of the image (just using article material) and added my estimation of the field of view (which I believe to be fairly accurate based on own experience and map). - Blieusong (talk) 11:29, 30 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Support Wouldn't say it's an amazing angle but good enough picture and high EV. Cat-five t c ---- 05:33, 7 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
