Support Cool. --★ Poké95 11:49, 5 April 2016 (UTC)- Support Wow. Popo le Chien ouah 12:19, 5 April 2016 (UTC)

- Oppose Composition doesn't work for me. The skater in the middle looks great, but I would've preferred to see the other two skaters fully rather than having them cut off at the knees. INeverCry 16:14, 5 April 2016 (UTC)
- While I understand your point, I think your proposition doesn't work either. You'll find yourself with either too much space on the right, the top and the bottom, or a decentered in-focus subject. Pleclown (talk) 16:46, 5 April 2016 (UTC)
- It probably would've been better for your composition if the American skater was in first place, or if the guy in third was further behind on the inside... INeverCry 17:15, 5 April 2016 (UTC)

- Oppose It's not an easy to make picture. But anyway, there are too many artefacts (noise). The high ISO (1,250) leads to this. Also the DOF is too low. The blurred front man on the left side borders me. Sorry, not FP in my eyes. Composition I'm not sure. --Hockei (talk) 17:32, 5 April 2016 (UTC)

- Oppose despite the actual rules and the good practice here, this picture is not FP. The composition is pretty good, but there are a lot of problems especially sharpness and noise. It´s a pity, that we are not able to create some special rules for live-pictures (sports, events, concerts), everyone can accept and use. And there will be more support for images of this sort. But that can not hide the fact that the problems are visible. It is not mandatory that sports photography can not have a certain sharpness. --Hubertl 14:50, 6 April 2016 (UTC)
- Support Composition works for me. The black "thing" on the right is good for balancing it and the "cut" bodies give an impression of movement. Erdrokan (talk) 21:40, 6 April 2016 (UTC)
- Support Great shot -
action doesn't have to be centered for all to be balanced.Sorry, thinking out loud. Atsme 📞 21:48, 6 April 2016 (UTC) - Oppose as above Jiel (talk) 23:28, 7 April 2016 (UTC)
- Support Chenspec (talk) 05:24, 8 April 2016 (UTC)
- Oppose Athletes being cut off doesn’t work for me either, though I understand that for others it does. Going to be a strawpoll here. --Kreuzschnabel 07:28, 8 April 2016 (UTC)
- Oppose more to left. --Mile (talk) 10:09, 8 April 2016 (UTC)
- Oppose as above -- George Chernilevsky talk 10:20, 8 April 2016 (UTC)
- Support Very nice sports action shot; technically really well executed. --Frank Schulenburg (talk) 02:06, 9 April 2016 (UTC)
- Oppose - I really like the composition. However, the lack of sharpness makes it a no as per Huberti's comments. Unfortunately. --Pugilist (talk)
- Oppose Noise and unsharpness, per others. Too bad ... it's a really nice pic of an underphotographed sport. Daniel Case (talk) 05:21, 10 April 2016 (UTC)
- Changed to Neutral, because I am worried about unsharpness of the image. Still cool though (and one of my favorites). Such a pity... --★ Poké95 05:51, 10 April 2016 (UTC)
- Support This is a very good and informative picture. It challenges the status quo of Featured Images indeed, but that is a good thing imho. The person in the middle of the picture is as focused as it can get. Given the light and speed, the quality could be hardly better.--QuimGil (talk) 11:27, 12 April 2016 (UTC)
