Support Rear view showing the red vent, and also the head with crest. There are no FPs of this species, only 3 FPs of other bulbuls. -- Tagooty (talk) 02:23, 20 March 2022 (UTC)
Oppose Head not in focus. I naturally prefer this one. Charlesjsharp (talk) 12:32, 20 March 2022 (UTC)- Oppose per Charles, sorry but I agree the head is not in focus here. Cmao20 (talk) 15:00, 20 March 2022 (UTC)
- Support -- Karelj (talk) 16:10, 20 March 2022 (UTC)
- Oppose Per Charles, and technical issues that make the feather tips look subpar. Daniel Case (talk) 23:16, 20 March 2022 (UTC)

Comment Importantly, the rear view focusses attention on the red-vent of the bulbul. DoF covers the tip of the tail to the neck (~10-12 cm). At common viewing sizes, the softness of the head is incidental. The more common frontal and side views of such birds require DoF of only 3-5 cm, technically easier to achieve. In hindsight, I could have used f/11-16. --Tagooty (talk) 02:48, 21 March 2022 (UTC)
- Oppose Those common frontal and side views wouldn't be likely to be featured here in 2022, I think. I get what you aimed for, but I don't think the red-vent is outstandingly sharp itself. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 04:53, 21 March 2022 (UTC)
- Oppose head unsharp. Tomer T (talk) 09:13, 21 March 2022 (UTC)
I withdraw my nomination Thanks for the feedback. --Tagooty (talk) 09:58, 21 March 2022 (UTC)
