Oppose. Nice, but unfortunately the DOF is too shallow and the tail is out of focus. —Bruce1ee^talk 05:10, 7 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Support I didn't notice the tail was out of focus. It would be nice if noise could be reduced, but overall it's a good image. --The High Fin Sperm Whale 05:56, 7 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Even the head is not sharp enough at 2.6 MP. J Kadavoor J e e 07:05, 7 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose The composition is unfortunate, the position of the bird is too close to the edge of the photo. But the more critical issue is the missing color contrast between background and bird. The colors are very related (gree tone) thus the bird is not well brought out. --Tuxyso (talk) 22:03, 7 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Support Guys, to me it is a nice composition, with "air" there where the bird is looking at and the subject is also interesting. The focus is not perfect but overall FP to me. Btw, I uploaded a new version after reworking the saturation and dynamic range. Poco a poco (talk) 19:12, 9 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

No problem for the composition; lead room, rule of third, etc. are OK. (In fact, (I think) it seems a well cropped frame from a large composition. It is good to appreciate new comers and people from underrepresented areas; but quality (details, focus, noise) is still refraining me to support. J Kadavoor J e e 05:25, 10 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Neutral A little cropping at the left would improve the composition. Sharpness is not perfect, but certainly good enough. The (lack of) color contrast is no problem IMO -- MJJR (talk) 21:46, 10 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Unfortunate light and poor focus. B.p. 11:06, 11 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Comment With all the quality issue opposes here this image will soon be promoted at QI! Topsy-turvy world... B.p. 19:32, 15 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
