- Info DRF Luftrettung Eurocopter EC135 P2 "Christoph 44" air ambulance helicopter during takeoff in Göttingen, Germany. C/u/n by me. — Julian H.✈ 19:24, 22 November 2017 (UTC)
- Support — Julian H.✈ 19:24, 22 November 2017 (UTC)
- Comment Yes, the camera took a good picture. But where is the photographer's "special eye"?Paolobon140 (talk) 21:54, 22 November 2017 (UTC)
- Here's why I picked this photo for a nominiation: It is unusually close to the action for this subject, which in my opinion makes a big difference in terms of engaging the viewer. It also visualizes the downwash from the rotors in the grass below -- and as a nice side effect, the direction of the grass points towards the center of the frame. I also think that the soft light just around sunrise is suitable for showing the detail on the helicopter and making it stand out from the background while still allowing for a decently long shutter speed. The latter is important to show the rotors in motion. — Julian H.✈ 08:17, 23 November 2017 (UTC)

- Support Personally I really like it. And I don't see it as a regular photo at all. It's an exciting scene. -- Thennicke (talk) 14:16, 24 November 2017 (UTC)
- Support Flattened grass and rotors make the picture. --cart-Talk 10:44, 25 November 2017 (UTC)
- Oppose I think on sunny, snowy mountain this would be top shot. Now background isnt helpful, weather neither. --Mile (talk) 10:49, 25 November 2017 (UTC)
- Neutral This is a hard one, sharpness is good and I also enjoy the flattened grass, but the composition and background is not at that level. It is too centered and there is nothing else in the composition that draws my attention. Probably snow, mountains, ... would make it --Poco2 16:00, 25 November 2017 (UTC)
- Comment You mean "sharpness" is one of the top characteristics a picture must have? I might show you 1000's of not shar pictures which has been considered as best pictures:-) I thought here on Commons we would go on beyond the ABC for learners.Paolobon140 (talk) 16:06, 25 November 2017 (UTC)
