Info While cherry blossoms are famed for their beauty, I think the first buds are also very interesting. Close-up some of them look like hungry little monsters. All by me, -- cart-Talk 12:37, 29 April 2017 (UTC)

- Mild Support - Irrespective of the results of this nomination, this photo should be nominated for QI and it also looks like a good VI candidate. In terms of this nomination, I've been undecided for a long time, but I think the composition is good enough to support a feature otherwise based on the interest of the motif. These buds look kind of like Brussels sprouts with some red leaves. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 04:22, 2 May 2017 (UTC)
- Thanks Ikan, it is always fascinating to see how things really look when you see them very close up. The photo was nominated at QIC at the same time it was nominated here and it is now a QI. You can always see if a pic has been nominated by scrolling down on the file's page and see under "File usage on Commons". If it is already nominated, 'Commons:Quality images candidates' will appear there even if it hasn't been promoted yet. --cart-Talk 08:41, 2 May 2017 (UTC)
- I see. But if it has not yet been nominated for VI, it should be. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 09:02, 2 May 2017 (UTC)
- For a VI, I think the cropped version would be better since it shows the buds better at thumb, this is a more artistic take on the twig. Anyway, I don't do noms for VI anymore since I always seems to get the scope or some other part of the nom wrong. ;) It is a rather confusing section of Commons. --cart-Talk 09:16, 2 May 2017 (UTC)
- Perhaps I will make the VI nomination on your behalf. Point taken on the cropped version. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 12:15, 2 May 2017 (UTC)
- Support and the seventh. --Alchemist-hp (talk) 23:36, 4 May 2017 (UTC)
- Support This remind me about my old camera and how difficult it was to get an FP with that. I think the quality is good enough and the composition is nice. Jee 04:13, 6 May 2017 (UTC)
