- Reason
- Photograph is of a good resolution, the subject is in focus and is of a good contrast. The combination of sunlight and shadows also bring out the texture of the wood.

- I would support a svg version of this image. Nergaal (talk) 17:37, 10 April 2011 (UTC)
- Was this comment on the wrong nomination? Because svg is not appropriate at all for this image. Jujutacular talk 03:09, 11 April 2011 (UTC)
- It was a joke on the fact that the image shows almost nothing, and somebody with more knowledge of inkscape could create a close copy of this, a CG one. Nergaal (talk) 16:19, 11 April 2011 (UTC)

- Oppose Low enc. The image should show a picture of the bridleway itself, not a sign indicating its existence. Unless there's significance of bridleway signs that I am not aware of...? SpencerT♦C 19:03, 10 April 2011 (UTC)
- I'm not in the UK, but my understanding is that there is a significance in that a bridleway has to be indicated as such in order for the legal distinction to apply. So I guess there's an argument that the sign is actually more significant than the path (public bridleways look no different, after all, from private ones). So I think there's a little EV here; too bad the photo is underexposed. Chick Bowen 00:19, 11 April 2011 (UTC)
- Oppose -- Poor photograph, no enc value. Alvesgaspar (talk) 00:13, 11 April 2011 (UTC)
- Oppose per Alvesgaspar. (Looking back, it seems to me that Alvesgaspar and I frequently vote the opposite way on nominations, but he's correct with this one.) Spikebrennan (talk) 19:49, 11 April 2011 (UTC)
- Sorry, I can't remember. But I've been away for quite some time and my memory fails me often... Anyway, thanks mother Nature for that, it means we are all diferent! -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 19:59, 11 April 2011 (UTC)
- Oppose too dark and would be better if the photo was taken with the sign pointing at a pathway to demonstrate what a Bridleway looks like... gazhiley.co.uk 12:27, 13 April 2011 (UTC)
