•  Comment This image is a behavior shot of a rare interaction and IMO interesting interaction between the turtle and the duck. Just few minutes before the shot was taken

the turtle had its head out File:Red-eared_sliders_and_Mallard_in_Golden_Gate_Park.jpg. The duck continued to investigate the turtle for some time.

•  Neutral I really love this shot, but composition could be better (bad crop, imo not very good perspective) --kaʁstn Disk/Cat 09:56, 18 April 2010 (UTC)

•  Support Crop feels indeed too tight, but the subject is amazing. --Elekhh (talk) 01:20, 20 April 2010 (UTC)
•  Neutral Very good, but sadly a square crop. I would support a 10:15 crop, which wouuld make the photo less tight. Utrom (talk) 11:57, 20 April 2010 (UTC)
•  Support - not a perfect image, but still a great shot, and I doubt the subjects will sit for a retake. Jonathunder (talk) 22:36, 20 April 2010 (UTC)
•  Support I really love this capture. The crop is a little tight, but I believe that that can be pardoned when the rest of the image's qualities are appreciated. ~Kevin Payravi (Talk) 23:37, 20 April 2010 (UTC)

•  Oppose Technical quality is okay and the subject is very interesting from an educational perspective. But the composition is pretty bad: from that angle it's difficult to see exactly what's going on with the duck and turtles, and the crop is way too tight. A long way from FP quality.

•  Oppose per Steven Walling; further more the picture is tilted strongly. --Dein Freund der Baum (talk) 22:44, 25 April 2010 (UTC)
