•  Oppose Good quality, but no wow. Yann (talk) 09:01, 25 October 2023 (UTC)
•  Support Thanks for the nomination! I actually thought about putting this forward myself a while ago. Quite a thought-provoking image, I think. BigDom (talk) 14:51, 25 October 2023 (UTC)
•  Oppose It wouldn't work for me even if the quality was higher. Doesn't do any favours to the people of Cardiff, does it? Charlesjsharp (talk) 16:56, 25 October 2023 (UTC)
•  Support It is a common sight, but I like the result. I like the composition, the contrast in colors among the pigeon, the yellow food tray, and the background wall. It is also worthy of praise the idea of capturing the opportunistic behavior of the species. --Harlock81 (talk) 17:12, 25 October 2023 (UTC)
•  Support The topic and the composition make wow for me. — Draceane ^talk_contrib. 20:38, 25 October 2023 (UTC)

•  Oppose Per above. -- Karelj (talk) 16:19, 27 October 2023 (UTC)
•  Oppose This is a good photo, but I have to agree with the others that it isn't wowing. It's a very deserving QI, well-composed, and the pigeon is solidly sharp, and as stated above, it has good documentary value, but people who live in any of the numerous cities around the world that are rock pigeon habitats see scenes like this every day, so the photo needs something more to be really special, in my opinion. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 21:59, 27 October 2023 (UTC)

  Appreciate the detailed critique, thank you Ikan. BigDom (talk) 22:53, 27 October 2023 (UTC)

• Sure thing. I like pigeons and enjoy observing them, so I had to think hard about this. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 07:00, 28 October 2023 (UTC)
