Support I love the bright color contrast of the flower with its horticultural context, especially considering the wider DoF required for such a large flower. It's also a good example of a sharp, high quality image from a point-and-shoot -- Ram-Man23:09, 13 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Support This one gets my support because it's original. I don't know how many times I've seen pictures of flowers that somehow look like they are from the Asteraceae family. I'm tired of those flowers. They are everywhere! They look good but ordinary. Not that there is anything wrong with something that is ordingary. It's just that this is a nice change.

Oppose - Yes, it is an unusual flower, but bells are not ringing. The composition is not pleasant for me and the crop is too tight. Maybe another angle? -- Alvesgaspar19:55, 14 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
HaHa! It's spherical. This is how it looks from someone viewing the flower normally. It's much more dynamic than a flat flower from the Asteracea family. Considering your support of various flat-composition flowers (including those that are not actually flat!) and those with tight crops, I'm a bit surprised with your vote. -- Ram-Man20:50, 14 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose I don't like the cluttered composition on this one. I agree with Alvesgaspar on the angle, not so that the flower may appear differently, but so the background could be cleaner. --Dori - Talk22:23, 14 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
