Oppose Although a beautiful photo, I find the foreground yellow and white very distracting. Perhaps a different crop? --Rute Martins of Leoa's Photography (www.leoa.co.za) 16:29, 14 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose I hate doing this, but I agree with Rute Martins. If someone could edit to the distracting foreground objects to make them less prominent I'd be happy to support this. --The High Fin Sperm Whale 18:47, 14 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Support Very nice photo. It is not studio photography thus (natural) foreground is not distracting for me. --Tuxyso (talk) 05:59, 15 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Sorry - unsharp, noisy, composition doesn't do the wow, some support comments are a puzzle to me. --A.Savin 17:03, 16 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Neutral A sight at which you just have to smile :), only this yellow patch in the foreground spoils the whole impression. If the image is cropped at the bottom or the yellow thing edited out, I'm likely to to support the nomination. --Maire (talk) 16:54, 17 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Beautiful birds, such a pity that the foreground really completely spoils it. --NJR_ZA (talk) 13:29, 18 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Comment I'll support if you desaturate the greens a bit --Uberprutser (talk) 20:45, 20 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
