Reason: A great depiction of both the Lady Elliot Island and the coral reef that lies below the surrounding waters. I find myself impressed by the quality of the picture.

Oppose Nice picture, would grace any wall in a house quite happily... But as far as an FP representing an island, this is very very low EV for me, and thus cannot support... The lump of sand with trees on it could be any lump of sand and trees... No way of using this picture to garner any information about the island itself... Pretty, but not FP worthy sorry... gazhiley 09:55, 8 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Cool photo, even cooler camera. I still don't understand the FP process fully, but this image is FP and taken by the same camera. Does that mean there can't be two FP images represented in one article (in this case, the camera's article)? ~~As for this nomination, and an image representing a specific island, I agree with gazhiley.~~ – Kerαunoςcopia^◁_galaxies 20:00, 9 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Support. This image has enough encyclopedic value, in my opinion. I disagree that there is "no way of using this picture to garner any information about the island itself". I can garner from this image that the island is surrounded by shallow water and coral reefs. Rreagan007 (talk) 03:45, 10 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Support nm, I agree with Rreagan007, and I learn a bit more from this photo than the aerial photo of the island itself. – Kerαunoςcopia^◁_galaxies 17:14, 10 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
