•  Oppose I don’t approve of the dog’s legs being cut off. No problem with a head portrait (which this isn’t, in spite of the caption) but showing half of the animal does not appeal to me. Irritating kind of bokeh on the foreground grass blades. All in all, a good telephoto shot but below FP threshold to me, sorry. --Kreuzschnabel 10:58, 6 May 2016 (UTC)
•  Comment Please don't confuse a file name with a caption. Charles (talk) 11:17, 6 May 2016 (UTC)
• Mild  Support - It's a head-and-part-of-the-body shot, and I kind of like it as such, but please consider cropping part of the bokeh on the right side. I don't see how having more bokeh helps the photo. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 19:27, 6 May 2016 (UTC)

•  Comment @Ikan Kekek: Lead room. -- Thennicke (talk) 03:59, 7 May 2016 (UTC)

• Yes, with the moving racing car. I don't think this photo needs it (or this much of it). -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 04:37, 7 May 2016 (UTC)

• Lead room is very important in pictures where the subject is looking in a certain direction, such as this. I think this is fine. -- Thennicke (talk) 08:21, 7 May 2016 (UTC)

• So we disagree. The world will continue to spin. :-) -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 08:56, 7 May 2016 (UTC)

•  Oppose Sort of per Kreuzschnabel. I can see why the photographer took the shot because of the head. However, the tail throws it off, and the crop gives it a sort of unintentional feel. Daniel Case (talk) 18:24, 10 May 2016 (UTC)
•  Oppose Per Kreuzschnabel and Daniel Case --Cephas (talk) 18:56, 11 May 2016 (UTC)
