- Oppose - The flower is beautiful, but this is not a great composition to me, per Charles. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 00:58, 1 March 2018 (UTC)

- Weak oppose I've been going back to this many times now. It is a very beautiful flower, sharp and all, but there are some elemant that makes it less than FP for me. First there is the busy background as others have noted, then there is the sort of line/halo on the left side of the flower that doesn't look totally right to me. Reading that you have "tried to make it blurred enough" suggest that the background has been blurred in post and not from natural bokeh. Last there is the light, comparing it with other photos in the category, the white balance seems a bit too yellow to me. --cart-Talk 10:18, 3 March 2018 (UTC)
- This is not artificially blurred. My RAW file is available on request. Just the DoF was adjusted to isolate the flower during the session. No artificial effect on post treatment. This picture was shot in the evening, so that's the normal color of the nature at this time of the day -- Basile Morin (talk) 12:25, 3 March 2018 (UTC)
- Oh, I trust you if you say so, but the line/halo is there in any case. --cart-Talk 23:02, 3 March 2018 (UTC)
- There's one here too File:Field_Bindweed_in_Brodalen.jpg (upper side of the flower on the left). Not a big problem IMO -- Basile Morin (talk) 06:10, 4 March 2018 (UTC)
- That one is nowhere near as pronounced as this one. Oh well unfortunately, there is still the busy background so my 'o' stands. Sorry, this one is not winning me over 100%. --cart-Talk 15:09, 4 March 2018 (UTC)
