- Oppose Looks nice, but for this camera and in 2021, I'd expect the resolution to be higher for FP.--Peulle (talk) 13:56, 3 December 2021 (UTC)
- The original file size of this photo is just 5472 x 3648 px which is the maximum size, it's not a 40+ MP camera. It makes a lot of sense for a photographer, not to photograph at the long end of the tele lense (70–200 mm, as you can see in the EXIF) but to crop to their needs. Certainly, I could have left much more water and floor (including an ugly effluent) around it but it made way more sense to crop for the best parts of the photo. And it's still more than a quarter of the maximum size, and nothing was downscaled just in case that was implied (I never do that). Best, —DerHexer (Talk) 22:40, 3 December 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose A picture of a dive would be more interesting. An accredited photographer should be able to get some nice shots. Charlesjsharp (talk) 16:56, 3 December 2021 (UTC)
- Sure, pick your favourite photo out of my 10,000+ files from this event and nominate it for FP. :) I do have hundreds of favourite jump photos from this event alone. But this photo, in contrast is a unique shot among all of these which I took in similar positions as this is part of the dive, too! Just like inruns, jumps, underwater action or emerging photos like this one. Why should they be mutually exclusive? Best, —DerHexer (Talk) 22:40, 3 December 2021 (UTC)
- I had a look at the first few hundred, that was more than enough. I am surprised you are not more selective in what you upload. Looking online, the diving images I like all have water as the background - like the one you've nominated. Charlesjsharp (talk) 10:45, 4 December 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose While it’s certainly unusual and funny to show the head of the boy fully covered in water, the title is at least misleading – this is not a picture about a diving competition (even if it’s taken on that occasion). As for quality. the focus is on his fingernails instead of his face, so it’s mostly a bit soft. --Kreuzschnabel 13:48, 4 December 2021 (UTC)

- Comment While the full image isn't an FP for me, I can see what made you think it could be ... the texture of the water coming off his face and hands. If you could make a crop work (and maybe straighten the edge of the pool), it might stand a chance. Daniel Case (talk) 06:16, 6 December 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose per Peulle. --Ivar (talk) 08:55, 8 December 2021 (UTC)
