Info: trumpeter swan (Cygnus buccinator) in Toronto. Tagged as part of the on-going reintroduction programme (after the species had been extirpated from Ontario in 1886). The tags are somewhat less prominent compared to the previous nom, and I like this composition more. All by -- The Cosmonaut (talk) 22:42, 10 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose ~~Animal~~ Rock cut at the left, the composition doesn't work for me, and I find the badge distracting -- Basile Morin (talk) 02:36, 11 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Question Cut where? It's in front of the piece of land. No dispute on your other points. Ikan Kekek (talk) 05:03, 11 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

You're right, it's a rock, but I find this part distracting, with the horizontal composition granting special importance to it. The badge is another weakness -- Basile Morin (talk) 05:16, 11 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Same specimen as last week, Miss Sophie? As for composition, this is much better, and excellent sharpness. However, the salient badge still lowers wow on my side, and the shadows are very dark and blueish. --Kreuz schnabel 07:16, 11 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Same specimen indeed, but who might this Miss Sophie be?.. --The Cosmonaut (talk) 17:14, 11 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Probably an allusion to Dinner for One, a comedy sketch in English language, but extremely popular especially in German. Miss Sophie is celebrating her 90th birthday, and like every year she has invited the same old friends – but all of them are dead now, and so the poor butler James must not only serve the meal and pour the drinks, but he must also play all the guests, i.e. drink the toasts to Miss Sophie, etc. Becoming drunk more and more, James asks Miss Sophie again and again: “The same procedure as last year, Miss Sophie?”, and she always replies: “The same procedure as every year, James.” --Aristeas (talk) 09:37, 13 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Left side too dark.--Peulle (talk) 07:48, 11 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: lifted the shadows and reduced the chroma cast. User:Kreuzschnabel, Peulle--The Cosmonaut (talk) 17:08, 11 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose I'm not bothered by the tag. Great pose, but the rock is too distracting. Daniel Case (talk) 03:41, 12 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Not special composition and harsh lighting and the tag. -- Colin (talk) 16:56, 15 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Rock distracting at the left, cloned part of the bird too obvious technically, also per Peulle above -- Basile Morin (talk) 02:33, 12 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Support I like the pose/look, the water droplets on the feathers, and the quiet bokeh of the waves as background. --Aristeas (talk) 09:51, 13 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
