•  Oppose when I visit here, I often see two active nom of yours. That's nice and that annoys me a bit. It feels "ok let's try and eventually some will pass". I think you should give more care before nominating. - Benh (talk) 22:42, 7 January 2018 (UTC)
•  Comment Benh, I understand that sentiment, but only to a certain point because I see the other side too...FPC is such a crap shoot that no one can accurately predict what will happen on all FPCs. Some photos are definite noms, some not, and then there are those in the gray area...none of us know what will happen on those and the results are often surprising. Look at the archive logs, probably about 75% of nominations fail. Just my two cents. PumpkinSky talk 22:50, 7 January 2018 (UTC)

  @PumpkinSky and Benh: I do indeed nominate those images that I believe that could became FPC, I agree with PumpinSky that there is a grey zone, and often other people have nominated pictures of mine where I saw no chance, but became FP. I am sorry if I believe that for tones of pictures, and there should actually be no problem with that. I do upload a lot and from everywhere and very different motifs, so sometimes I give a try to very different photographs. It is a fact that motifs that wow me don't wow other and the other way around. Poco² 09:48, 8 January 2018 (UTC)

•  Oppose - I'm sorry but I don't really like the light or the sharpness of the sheep. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 03:51, 8 January 2018 (UTC)

•  Oppose I don't find this exceptional, sorry. The sky is not pleasant and the sheep unsharp -- Basile Morin (talk) 04:50, 8 January 2018 (UTC)
•  Oppose Reluctantly so. There is just something odd here technically, the foreground is oversharp and the background is unfocused. I think the situation is that the entire image is a bit out of focus but the foreground looks artificially sharpened. It doesn't work. Montanabw (talk) 05:52, 8 January 2018 (UTC)
•  Oppose per others. --El Grafo (talk) 08:33, 8 January 2018 (UTC)
