•  Oppose A nice, pretty sharp capture of the marmots, and I understand why it was nominated, but I don't think we see enough of the marmots clearly enough for this to be an FP. The snow (I think it is) in the background is a little distracting because it's brighter than the animals, which are partly dark; plants sort of look like they're growing out of the head of the marmot on the left; and then there's the tall grass in front of them, which might not have mattered as much if other elements were cooperating more. Basically, this photo is what Daniel Case and some others would call "too busy", with too much distracting the viewer from the subject(s) while otherwise harming and not helping the composition. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 07:26, 8 July 2022 (UTC)

• The background is obviously a rock, not snow. Yann (talk) 09:15, 8 July 2022 (UTC)

• I can see that it's a rock now that you say so, but the point is that it's distracting. If you want to make some point about that based on it being "obvious" that it's a rock, that's up to you. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 17:25, 8 July 2022 (UTC)

• Daniel Case? Your vote is the 7th vote right now, so I just want to make sure you wanted to support, not oppose. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 19:25, 14 July 2022 (UTC)

@Ikan Kekek: Thank you for the catch! You are correct ... I had actually caught it while !voting, but realized I wanted to change something else, and forgot to go back and change the !vote. Daniel Case (talk) 20:33, 14 July 2022 (UTC)

•  Weak support I know I know I know … but … I keep looking at this one again and again, somehow the gesture of the two animals fascinates me. So it seems I have to support ;–). --Aristeas (talk) 18:37, 14 July 2022 (UTC)
