•  Oppose sorry, not FP, too disturbing elements and dull light Ezarateesteban 22:19, 1 July 2017 (UTC)
•  Oppose - Funny motif, but I don't like the sticks in the foreground. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 00:02, 2 July 2017 (UTC)
  •  Comment This sort of driftwood is common there. PumpkinSky talk 03:21, 2 July 2017 (UTC)

• Understood, and I have no problem with it per se, but as a foreground to the chair, I find it distracting. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 03:45, 2 July 2017 (UTC)

• @Ikan Kekek: Fair enough. I don't think I should move the wood. It's a public park. Maybe one day if I'm there and the lighting is better and I Lightroom out the wood, it'll look better. I don't know if you noticed on the file page, but it's about 8 feet (2.4m) from the top of the chair back down to the sand. I find it a fascinating a fascinating subject. Thoughts?

• I think it might be OK to crop so that the big sticks aren't in the foreground. This motif does not fascinate me, but because it fascinates you, I think you will come up with a really good depiction of it. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 17:30, 2 July 2017 (UTC)
• Ikan Kekek I've uploaded a cropped version so we can see what it looks like. Thanks for the "vote of confidence", but I'm not so sure. I think the Goddess of Photography has decided I'm destined only for QI. The only reason I have one FP is because Cart saw a photo of mine and told me to retake it with the big leaf in the middle.

• Don't loose heart, look at the QI/FP ratio most of us have. You have only begun this. :) --cart-Talk 19:27, 2 July 2017 (UTC)

• Ah well, now the grass is distracting me. Sorry about that. You could try pinging everyone who voted to see what they think, though. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 18:10, 2 July 2017 (UTC)

•  Oppose Nothing featurable for me here as well, sorry. -- Pofka (talk) 10:11, 2 July 2017 (UTC)
•  Oppose Sorry, such an extraordinary piece of furniture need something that will give the viewer a sense of just how big it is. I think I've seen this chair with a dog in it somewhere (although I think a dog lounging under it would be better). And there is of course the grass in the foreground. I don't think this need to be shot full frontal, maybe some angle gives it a better/calmer surrounding. --cart-Talk 19:27, 2 July 2017 (UTC)
  •  Comment User:W.carter and User:Ikan Kekek Thank you for the constructive tips. I go down there from time to time and when I do I'll try again. PumpkinSky talk 19:44, 2 July 2017 (UTC)
•  I withdraw my nomination If I ever go back there, I'll try again. PumpkinSky talk 19:42, 2 July 2017 (UTC)
