Question Is it possible to get the ferry with a cleaner background? --Muhammad(talk) 02:54, 22 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose - very distracting background. Elekhh (talk) 07:37, 22 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. Has been removed fairly promptly from all articles except Inner Harbour ferry services, Sydney... It's a decent image, but articles like that are tough to find a home in. Everyone has their own photo to shove in there. :-) For the record, I think I may have a better photo of a Sydney Ferry.. I'll have a look. Ðiliff «» (Talk) 07:58, 22 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Just uploaded two images of the Circular Quay-Manly ferry Collaroy (larger ferry). I haven't added them to any articles yet (they'd probably just get removed as yours were anyway, but I'll give it a go). I think they're probably better examples in terms of simplicity of composition anyway. Ðiliff «» (Talk) 21:07, 24 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  - Interestingly, I just noticed that even the captain appears to have found it a pleasant enough day to warrant leaving the helm to take a photo in the first image ;-) Ðiliff «» (Talk) 21:09, 24 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    - Maybe he's a big fan of Featured Pictures and spotted you and wanted a picture! hehe Gazhiley (talk) 13:26, 26 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Overly busy background. In particular, the spiky building behind the ferry (?) appears at first glance to be a part of the ferry. Even after viewing the image at full size, I wasn't positive it was a building as opposed to something protruding from the ferry. Calliopejen1 (talk) 13:49, 24 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Bit late, but its Luna Park, Sydney. Noodle snacks (talk) 11:28, 27 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
