~~Weak support~~ Neutral Obviously an important moment (for both the bird and the fish) and a fascinating capture. Educational value definitely tips the scale. My dilemmas with the image are the busy background (fortunately the majority of the bird's head is over a dark area), and the extremely strange cropping. Lots of headroom, but no feet. I would almost prefer a tighter crop to make things "right". – Kerαunoςcopia^◁gala xies 14:00, 25 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Changed to neutral, perhaps a different crop would work better. I agree, the composition really isn't great. – Kerαunoςcopia^◁gala xies 13:49, 26 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose bad light, composition (background, crop at bottom), quality (especially noise, CA?!?) --kaʁstn Disk/Cat 14:43, 25 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Looks like the heron's having a good meal, but the composition is not ideal, it is oversharpened, and the background is distracting. --The High Fin Sperm Whale 18:04, 25 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Bad crop at bottom --Archaeodontosaurus (talk) 12:33, 26 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Support The background is rather distracting, but I think it's a moment well captured. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 10:15, 28 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
