File talk:VOF-SilicaDome-down.jpg

Purpose?
If this image was taken by someone, and not from canon, it shouldn't be in the in-universe portion of the article, if it is in the article at all. I'm not clear on the purpose of it.--31dot 18:50, March 24, 2012 (UTC)

Photographs from on location
I visited this site and walked 1.5 miles total to find my way to the top and get back down. My rental car was about 0.3 miles away from the site of this photograph. This was the shooting location of Star Trek: Generations - twice. I stood at the top of Silica Dome (our universe). To rephrase it, I stood on the spot where Picard buried Kirk (Star Trek / in universe). This photograph is not a screen capture form the film (canon) but a view of the areas from the film. If you watch the scenes around Veridian III, you'll recognize a few distinguishable features. I don't believe that this should be listed under Background in the Veridian III article, because the article is about Veridan III only. I didn't want to replace the screen capture. Ideas?

 * It should be listed as background because it is not from canon; it is a picture of the shooting location, not an image of the Trek universe. It's no different than the images of shooting locations found in books or on DVD extras. --31dot 12:05, March 28, 2012 (UTC)
