Sunset Marina
- Reason
- The picture features a dramatic composition with a vast array of differing colors and gives an excellent representation of the spectecular sunsets, complete with sun-pillar, that occur when the weather is just cloudy enough but not too cloudy and sun is still able to shine through. The picture was also feautred on the local news, the day it was taken.

- Comment Are the clouds clearly defined enough for an FP? I'm not sure. --Sharkface217 05:02, 2 January 2008 (UTC)
- Oppose Very pretty from a distance, but poorly-defined up close. There's a huge pictorial element here which I tend to disregard for FPC, as it's depiction of the subject which is relevant. As such, it's a reasonably good sunset pic, but not an outstanding capture at all and of very dubious value in the California-related articles. The horizon isn't horizontal, btw. --mikaultalk 08:57, 2 January 2008 (UTC)
- OIppose per above. Just a nice sunset, could be anywhere. --Janke | Talk 09:43, 2 January 2008 (UTC)
- Oppose per mickaul, Janke. Cacophony (talk) 23:44, 2 January 2008 (UTC)
- Oppose. A beautiful image, and taken on Christmas, no less. But it's only in a gallery in Sunset, and is not encyclopedic for any of the other articles in which it appears. Spikebrennan (talk) 01:05, 3 January 2008 (UTC)
- Comment. The arguments above regarding its use in CA-related articles are duly noted, but I cannot find a better ocean-sunset picture on the Sunset article; that is I fail to see how any of the other pics, save the perhaps the currently sole FP which dipicts a special type of sunset, does a better job as dispalying a sunset.

- Oppose Per above. Nothing to indicate it from california. BjmanTalk 22:58, 5 January 2008 (UTC)
