Support This is one of the most highly saturated flowers that I've ever seen. It is very difficult to photograph without clipping the red channel or severely underexposing the picture to compensate. This is both detailed and avoids the clipping problem without being too dark. -- Ram-Man02:57, 1 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Weak Support- It's very good, and you did an excellent job at getting the truly vibrant colour to come out. However, I really do with we could see the rest of the plant, so we could get an idea of how the flower looks in context.

Support Traditionally images like this have not been promoted over the flower closeup, but there has been a recent demand for images in greater context, so here we go. Whichever has the most and strongest support should become a FP. -- Ram-Man16:26, 3 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Perhaps you are looking too close to the monitor (like an inch away) or you have a 6-bit per color monitor and are seeing an LCD display artifact? This was not upsampled and is the same resolution as the other image. There is nothing wrong with this image. -- Ram-Man 00:01, 4 September 2008 (UTC)Comment: No, no, and no, I'm in the same monitor in which I see all the FPC, and the are not pixels in most others, I see clearly pixels in the thumb and in the full resolution image.

Make the picture bigger? You mean more magnification? The standard for a FP is 2MP of resolution, which this far exceeds. I continue to not understand this point. -- Ram-Man02:58, 4 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Please note that Wikipedia's Thumbnail software seems buggy at the moment - on the image description page, for instance, the thumbnail softare is actually adding artefacting that isn't there if you look at the full resolution version. Adam Cuerden (talk) 10:01, 5 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Strong support This is what photos of flowers should look like: A vview of all of the plant, not just the bit that appears for a few weeks of the year. Adam Cuerden (talk) 09:58, 5 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
