Utah SR 95

Sorry, I know that we've kinda already chosen the pic for June, but this got recently uploaded and I would be betraying my Utah roots if I didn't nominate this awesome pic.Dave (talk) 03:07, 29 May 2009 (UTC)

Support, great picture! But for September or October Ngs61 (talk) 15:28, 30 May 2009 (UTC)

Note:TMF's reasoning below has to do with why I nominated this. However, I recognize that it may not be cool with everybody nominating a pic 3 days before the decision has to be final. I am OK with leaving the nomination as is or moving it down a month or two. Dave (talk) 18:08, 31 May 2009 (UTC)

• Support for this upcoming month (June). It's miles ahead of any the other nominations on this page. – TMF 09:30, 31 May 2009 (UTC)

The result of the poll was support NY 258 picture. Since we have a large stable of noms now for several months out, I will no longer "roll over" nominations from the previous month. The nominators of images that were not selected may, of course, renominate the images for a later month; however, they will no longer be automatically carried over. – TMF 16:38, 1 July 2009 (UTC)

Nomination Discussion

I've been thinking that we might want to restrict the monthly nominations to only include photos taken in that month; e.g. require the October photo to have been taken during October, etc. I'm not sure if we have the volume to sustain that kind of requirement, but it might help make the nomination process a little less arbitrary. What do the other regulars think about this proposal? Nimur (talk) 03:29, 4 September 2009 (UTC)

Honestly, I don't see the need to implement this as I don't think that having "arbitrary" noms is an issue. The only issue I see presented below is potential regional bias, which is something totally different. – TMF 21:29, 5 September 2009 (UTC)

NY 17

New York State Route 17 traveling through Liberty, New York.
Ngs61 (talk) 18:57, 8 June 2009 (UTC)

• Support; NY17 was one of the first state highways I'd driven in entirety. Nice shot of the foliage and the rolling hills. Nimur (talk) 05:32, 30 August 2009 (UTC)
• Support Has a good balance of road and scenery. IMO, the second picture focuses too much on scenery and the third focuses too much on the road. – TMF 20:55, 31 August 2009 (UTC)
• Oppose - We have already had three New York pictures this year alone, we need to see other states. Dough4872 (talk) 16:12, 2 September 2009 (UTC)
  • Yes, but the lone picture nominated from another state isn't very good IMO. – TMF 17:42, 2 September 2009 (UTC)
• Oppose per above. --Rschen7754 (T C) 00:10, 30 September 2009 (UTC)

NY 208

New York State Route 208 running along the Catskill Aqueduct between Wallkill and Gardiner, New York.

PA 662

Pennsylvania Route 662 northbound in Oley Township, Pennsylvania. Dough4872 (talk) 17:24, 9 July 2009 (UTC)

• Support - The streaks in the roadway really emphasize age. –CG 17:41, 9 July 2009 (UTC)
• Support - It doesn't really show age, but I like the image anyways --Admrboltz (talk) 17:35, 2 September 2009 (UTC)
• Oppose There's nothing about this picture that really stands out at me and says "wow". The only picture that I can think of that reminds me of this one was the one for US 50, but that picture emphasized the whole "loneliest road" concept. On top of that, it looks like the tint of the windshield wasn't removed through color correction before it was uploaded. I'd have a hard time justifying this as one of the best road pictures in the U.S., which is what we should be nominating here. – TMF 17:42, 2 September 2009 (UTC)

• Oppose per TMF. —Scott5114↗ [EXACT CHANGE ONLY] 21:33, 5 September 2009 (UTC)

PA 248

Pennsylvania Route 248 expressway approaching the Blue Mountain range via Lehigh Gap.—JA10 Talk • Contribs 16:07, 20 August 2009 (UTC)

• Support PA has only had one selected picture, and that was for April Fool's Day. --Rschen7754 (T C) 00:13, 30 September 2009 (UTC)

MO 266

Missouri Route 266 from Route Z in Halltown, just east of Route 266's terminus at Route 96. To throw some more regional variety in. —Scott5114↗ [EXACT CHANGE ONLY] 21:59, 5 September 2009 (UTC)

CA 70

• This is a failed nomination from several months ago. I'm happy with the other nominations, I only present it, as Mitch has some concerns about regional bias, I don't think we've had California featured in a while.Dave (talk) 10:11, 15 October 2009 (UTC)

I-5 and I-90 in Seattle

Ngs61 (talk) 16:22, 15 October 2009 (UTC)

• Support - Like the overhead view of the interchange. Dough4872 (talk) 16:34, 18 October 2009 (UTC)
• Oppose We already had a Seattle I-5 pic in September 2008. --Rschen7754 (T C) 18:23, 18 October 2009 (UTC)

In December, that will be 16 months ago. I don't think that is overrepresentation. If anything, what is over-represented is aerial shots of freeway interchanges, not Seattle.Dave (talk) 18:51, 18 October 2009 (UTC)

There was also a picture of the Alaskan Way Viaduct in 2008 as well. --Rschen7754 (T C) 19:20, 18 October 2009 (UTC)

This got me curious. On the talk page I've got the tally of selected picture by state. Dave (talk) 19:34, 18 October 2009 (UTC)

I-5 at Mercer Street in Seattle

Another Seattle image that shows the I-5 express lanes under the regular lanes. There's plenty more from where this came from. –CG 20:52, 15 October 2009 (UTC)

• Oppose We already had a Seattle I-5 pic in September 2008. --Rschen7754 (T C) 18:23, 18 October 2009 (UTC)

NJ 18

A historical picture of New Jersey Route 18 in New Brunswick. Have not had a NJ pic before and this throws in variety as it is a historical picture rather than a current picture. Dough4872 (talk) 16:06, 19 October 2009 (UTC)

• Support - Although I'm not normally a fan of pics of road signs, this is something different. Dave (talk) 00:49, 17 November 2009 (UTC)
• Support per Dave. I'm not a fan of old, greyscale pics, but once every so often is fine. As long as this doesn't lead to a flood of them... – TMF 21:16, 20 November 2009 (UTC)
• Support due to the fact I live in a borough just across the bridge to where that sign is. For theoretics, this is what the scene looks like now. This picture dates back to when Route 18's freeway ended at Route 27 in New Brunswick. From here, 18 went into my borough and over to Middlesex. (Also of note, 18 is now N-S, yet the sign is east)Mitch32^{(A fortune in fabulous articles can be yours!)} 14:28, 21 November 2009 (UTC)

US 212 in Montana

This is a pic of U.S. Route 212 from the Vista Point overlook in Montana. I don't think we've had anything Montana represented on the portal.Mitch32^{(The Password is... See here!)} 11:24, 3 November 2009 (UTC)
