Original - Kukenan Tepui at sunset, as seen from Tëk river base camp.

Reason: Principal reason: very poor quality images of the whole Gran Sabana and Canaima National Park. No high-quality images of Kukenan Tepui in the article describing it. Second: this is a difficult place to reach. The trip to the Kukenan takes three days on foot. The tepuy is not reachable by car. Available pictures of Kukenan tepui have very little quality. It is also quite rare to have good lighting conditions and no clouds in front of a tepui, so, a picture like this, is quite uncommon. And finally, there are few high-quality pictures of Gran Sabana National Park, that's why I think this one should be included in featured ones.

Just to clarify; this was first nominated at Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/Kukenan Tepuy at Sunset and then suspended for a week because it had just been added; the suspension was to save Paolostefano the trouble of renominating it, but I guess we forgot to unsuspend it. So I guess we should just close that one and have this one be the current nomination. Chick Bowen 21:03, 16 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Support I don't like the mist, but other than that it's a nice and illustrative picture with good EV. ■ MMXX ^talk 22:08, 17 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Support I have the same feelings about the mist, but I'm happy to support, particularly given that we have hardly anything from south america. JJ Harrison (talk) 05:50, 18 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Support per above. --jjron (talk) 11:19, 18 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Strong support Very nice colors -- George Chernilevsky ^talk 09:54, 20 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Support I am ambivalent toward the mist, and this is certainly a lovely scene. --99of9 (talk) 03:37, 23 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
