Lycoperdon perlatum
 Info You can see in the foreground a immature foot and to second 4 mature feet, which one has a hole in the top opens to release spores in a burst when the body is compressed by raindrops, a touch, falling nuts, etc. --Citron (talk) 23:31, 1 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • I'm sure it has encyclopedic value, but I don't find this picture very beautiful otherwise. As per Steven Walling. Maybe en wiki FPC is a better place also. - Benh (talk) 06:28, 2 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
What's wrong qualitatively speaking? Thank you to develop. --Citron (talk) 11:13, 2 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
It seems a little dark, and the composition isn't super clear if the subject is the puff. Steven Walling 23:03, 2 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Support Good depth of field, educational, the lighting seems very natural and it's framed pretty well. This image might not grab everybody because few people really care about mushrooms, but I find those other things I mentioned of this image better than the majority. -- IdLoveOne (talk) 04:43, 2 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
What's wrong artistically speaking? The colors are not shimmering enough? This is not the fault of this poor fungus. --Citron (talk) 11:10, 2 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Oppose I do agree with Benh's assessment. Image is good value but misses the pizazz to be considered the best of the best that commons has to offer. W.S. 10:42, 2 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Please, see the other featured pictures of mushrooms and tell me what is so extraordinary compared to this one. --Citron (talk) 11:00, 2 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
