Oppose centered boring composition, no wow - Benh (talk) 10:17, 16 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Depends how you want to look at it. The body and the eye are along the line of thirds, so if you're a fan of the rule of thirds, that might help. IMO, it has enough wow as some FPs of birds that commons has like File:Ardea_alba4.jpg, File:Domestic_Goose.jpg and File:Graugans_Anser_Anser.jpg. --Jovian Eye _talk 13:29, 16 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose As Benh. And commenting on your comment: I might support your last example as it has good light and interesting DOF, while the other two would not pass today any more for the same reasons as this current nom. W.S. 13:41, 16 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - composition is very good (from non-artictic (kitsch)-but-must-be-realistically-useful-for-an-educational-purpose POV), but legs... Przykuta → [edit] 15:57, 16 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Lacking sharpness and the picture should be eather with good DOF or blurry background. Going midway, like this picture does is not working IMO.--Snaevar (talk) 17:07, 16 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Weak support -- A good, but somewhat basic image. I think the lighting's a bit off, the bird seems a tad greyer where it should likely be white. -- One, please. ( _{^{Thank you.}}) 04:10, 18 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Weak oppose Sorry, it is a good picture of the bird but somehow I don't find it special enough. The composition is good for me, quality is good in full size. But as a whole, it kind of keeps me feeling like it's ”just another picture of a bird in a garden”. There are many great pictures of different animals and in this kind of case, I think I would have liked more if the background was more blurred – not so focused. --Ximonic (talk) 15:28, 18 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose, per Ximonic--shizhao (talk) 13:06, 23 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
