•  Info The photo is rather abstract - taken while shaking the camera, so it was intentional camera movement. The subject are a tree, leaves and the sun. Usually such photos are not nominated here. So I am sure that this can lead to discussions. --XRay 💬 18:28, 22 May 2021 (UTC)

•  Support As far as I'm concerned, a successful creative representation of a natural object.--Famberhorst (talk) 04:43, 23 May 2021 (UTC)
•  Support Nice but I'm not sure--Lmbuga (talk) 10:48, 23 May 2021 (UTC)
•  Support I do support this kind of photos - interesting, artistical, imaginatives, fantastic, like a painting, a rebirth of a moment, an unusual sort of pictures - why not? Be open for new views, new worlds, be bold! --Schnobby (talk) 12:35, 23 May 2021 (UTC)

• Yep! Totally agree. :-) And getting an intentional camera movement shot to actually look good, is a lot harder than people might think. That's why we usually just get horizontal or vertical movement. Turning the greenery into a "slanting rain" like here is new. Very nice. --Cart (talk) 12:54, 23 May 2021 (UTC)

• I don't want to hide the fact that it took several attempts. --XRay 💬 12:59, 23 May 2021 (UTC)

• If it only took you "several attempts", you have a natural flair for this. I made over 30 bad ones before my attempt looked even acceptable, and still nowhere near FP quality. :-) --Cart (talk) 13:22, 23 May 2021 (UTC)

• Let's put it this way: I don't remember the exact number. I had already tried it in different situations and gained my experience. With these attempts, the opportunity with suitable light and a whole series of shots, it then led to this picture. --XRay 💬 14:04, 23 May 2021 (UTC)

•  Oppose -- Sorry, but I don't see the sense of this at all, no focus, no detail, and all you can tell is that there is a tree in it. It's like randomly dropping paint on canvas and calling it "abstract art". Seven Pandas (talk) 19:37, 23 May 2021 (UTC)

•  Oppose sorry, but I struggle to find encyclopedic value in this. --Ivar (talk) 06:51, 24 May 2021 (UTC)

• Ivar, as have been said many times before, see rule 7 on COM:FPC#General rules: "Remember, the goal of the Wikimedia Commons project is to provide a central repository for free images to be used by all Wikimedia projects, including possible future projects. This is not simply a repository for Wikipedia images, so images should not be judged here on their suitability for that project." This would be an excellent cover for a Wikibook. And who knows, there might be a WikiPoerty in the pipeline for "future projects". There is also the article Intentional camera movement. --Cart (talk) 07:23, 24 May 2021 (UTC)

• I still can't see the value for possible future projects. --Ivar (talk) 08:04, 24 May 2021 (UTC)

•  Neutral Nice effect, but the contrasts are bothering in my view. I don't like the blown highlights around the trunk -- Basile Morin (talk) 03:40, 30 May 2021 (UTC)
•  Oppose per Ivar, too RolfHill (talk) 08:59, 30 May 2021 (UTC)
