•  Support Considering the size of the fish, which is beautiful, the details are quite good. I also like the composition. The water is fairly noisy (roiled?) at full size, but the solution is not to try to pixel-peep the background. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 22:26, 7 May 2023 (UTC)

•  Comment I like the noisier version better because it seems a bit sharper. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 00:12, 9 May 2023 (UTC)
