Oppose - Blurry and the angle is not especially encyclopedic. --Pharaoh Hound (talk) (The Game) 13:41, 17 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Support - blurry background appears intentional, result of low aperture to draw attention to focused subject, this is a photographic technique, not a problem. As for the bird itself - beautiful! — Preceding unsigned comment added by MamaGeek (talk • contribs)
Oppose I don't have a problem with the blurry background, just the blurry foreground. Also, the bird is cut off, and cropping is a bit tight. J Are you green? 19:54, 18 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose per J, specifically the tight crop. -- Phoenix2 ^{(talk, review)} 04:20, 20 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
