Oppose - I don't understand this nomination. You take such great photos, but this one is not sharp enough for such a common bird. It's also not really advantageous for its face to be in lower light. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 23:24, 25 December 2019 (UTC)- Oppose It isn't really interesting with the bird seen from behind.

Comment It's a pity that you see it that way. Firstly, even if the bird species is common, it is not easy to photograph them because they are very shy and careful. Second, you don't see the story behind the photo. It was walking in front of me in the same direction as me while it was watching me with its sly eyes why I was pointing the "tube" at it and whether the escape distance has fallen below. I love this picture and the scene that is in it. --Hockei (talk) 08:19, 27 December 2019 (UTC)
- It is always frustrating when you see or experience something exceptional, but it just doesn't come out that way in a photo. Your brain is re-living that special moment when you see the photo, unfortunately it is hidden for the rest of us. Then again, you can happen to snap a meh-moment and it turns out to be a great photo by accident. Photography is the art where we often surprise ourselves, for better or worse. --Cart (talk) 18:48, 27 December 2019 (UTC)
- The question is whether the viewer is actually looking at it or just glancing at it. It is not that difficult to recognize the story. Either you want it or you don't.
I withdraw my nomination. --Hockei (talk) 19:16, 27 December 2019 (UTC)
- Wow. Only on FPC do you get reprimanded for trying to say something nice or soothing. Thanks for reminding me. --Cart (talk) 01:13, 28 December 2019 (UTC)
- Sorry, no reprimand. You misinterpreted something. I only discussed about the way of looking at the photo. --Hockei (talk) 07:34, 28 December 2019 (UTC)
