Info created by Herbythyme - uploaded by Herbythyme - nominated by Herbythyme -- Herby talk thyme 17:32, 11 December 2009 (UTC)- Info This images shows the village of Kingswear which lies opposite the town of Dartmouth across the river Dart. The lowest bridging point on the Dart is some way upstream and without the ferries (on is shown in the image) between Dartmouth and Kingswear there would be a journey of at least thirty minutes to get from one side to the other. Both places have considerable historic interest going back over 1000 years. Both also have castles which were used to defend the river (one can be seen and there is a pointer to the location of the other one). The Pilgrim Fathers put in to Dartmouth before setting sail in 1620. This is a stitched image made up from three individual images.

Comment, the image is badly tilted; a ~1.33 deg counter-clockwise rotation is necessary to fix this. --Aqwis (talk) 17:39, 11 December 2009 (UTC)
- Hopefully fixed (rotated by 1.33 deg). I'll put the notes back on as soon as I can. Thanks --Herby talk thyme 18:13, 11 December 2009 (UTC)

- Support An amazing scenery with a high EV.--Mbz1 (talk) 18:39, 11 December 2009 (UTC)
- Support Excellent work. Even the locations of the four boats add to the balance of the composition. --MattiPaavola (talk) 18:55, 11 December 2009 (UTC)
- Support, although the image notes seem slightly (substantially?) misplaced? –Juliancolton | Talk 01:44, 12 December 2009 (UTC)
- They are ok to me? Is it all of them? More info would be good, thanks --Herby talk thyme 09:48, 12 December 2009 (UTC)
- All of them at least with Firefox 3.5.5. -MattiPaavola (talk) 11:02, 12 December 2009 (UTC)
- Weird - I am using FF 3.5.5. When I placed them they looked a little odd but show in the right place for me. I think I'll delete them and try again but I'm just going out now so it will be later. And follow up - cache issue maybe. I cleared it and sure enough the notes were very badly placed :(. Anyway - hopefully fixed now. Thanks for the feedback --Herby talk thyme 12:27, 12 December 2009 (UTC)
- Yep, all in order now. Thanks for taking care of that. –Juliancolton | Talk 13:16, 12 December 2009 (UTC)
