Oppose Nothing extraordinary here. Yann (talk) 10:37, 20 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Very visible chromatic aberration on the body of the snimal, sorry. --Cayambe (talk) 13:17, 20 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Cayambe, That is not CA but Structural coloration on the snake's scales, which is caught rather well here. --cart-Talk 15:05, 20 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@ cart: ok for this. But it looks very unnatural and unattractive here. See my annotation in the image. --Cayambe (talk) 16:46, 20 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Its is really natural, serious. Is a skin condition affects some snakes exposed to sun. [1] -- Webysther (talk) 00:26, 21 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not saying if it looks attractive or not, just explaining what it is. Some may find it cool and others may think it ruins the photo, that is up to the individual viewer. --cart-Talk 16:55, 20 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose The surroundings are too distracting. Daniel Case (talk) 00:40, 21 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Daniel Case: Non-disturbing crop done. 😄 ArionEstar 😜 (talk) 00:17, 22 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@ArionEstar: I haven't been here as long as some other users, but it is generally common practice not to modify and upload a new version of someone's photograph without their consent, as a photograph, despite it being freely licensed, is someone's own artistic work, even if you're just cropping it. Obviously you didn't mean to do anything wrong, and it is easily reversible, but I thought I should point that out. I would just revert it now and then message the creator on their talk page about possible changes if they were requested. WClarke 03:10, 22 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with WClarke. Please ask first. -- 08:33, 22 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

At first I thought it was Charles that accidentally lost half his signature as done before, but it looks like Mr. "22 July 2017" is Colin. --cart-Talk 09:01, 22 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Or, if you want to crop someone else's photo, you upload it as a new version and use Template:Derived from and offer the cropped version as an alt. --cart-Talk 09:01, 22 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
