It's quite interesting to see how views evolve over time. For example LAS photos gain in January more photos than they do in 6 months. Apparently...

It was taken using the last usable light of the day! It was appealed and accepted. If I were you, I'd reduce the image size to somewhere between 1200 and 1600 wide and re-upload, but you have some phenomenal high-res images already on the site so you seem to definitely prefer going that route.
