Wikipedia:Picture peer review/Common Water Hyacinth

Flower of the common water hyacinth, Eichhornia crassipes. Photographed in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania.

Encyclopedic value and good quality. Appears in Water hyacinth and Eichhornia crassipes

My feeling would be that some of the comments I made re that flower gallery below would probably also apply here. I just find that flowers that blend into other flowers in the background like this one does tend to get a hard run at FPC. Now it may be possible that this is just the way these flowers grow, but I don't really get that impression, although looking at the other images in the article it appears this may be the case - so it would be a matter of convincing voters of this. The other concern (and admittedly I have only viewed at image page size) is that the lower petals on the main flower look a little 'blown' - possibly harsh flash reflection? --jjron (talk) 14:34, 29 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
