  •  Oppose I like it, but its too dark and I would prefer different lighting (though probably won't succeed because it is not a "flower" photo). As for being non-descriptive, it is a lot more descriptive than most other photos (it even has links). --Digon3 14:09, 26 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    • What do you mean "it is not a flower photo". It is a flower. And it is descriptive and shows sharper details than most flower featured pictures. It also has perfect DoF control. Two people who think it is boring is not the end of the world, but I can see about changing the brightness of the image. -- Ram-Man 14:45, 26 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
      • I meant other people might vote against because it does't look like a flower (I was making an observation based on your other nominations). It is very descriptive and interesting photo of a flower, I was addressing the two people above.
p.s. It is a dead flower :) --Digon3 17:59, 26 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Yes a dead flower, but one in which being dead actually has significance. These plants are grown partially because the flowers last into spring, thus providing garden variety during the winter months. -- Ram-Man 22:27, 26 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
You don't have to explain, I was just trying to be funny. --Digon3 20:20, 27 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
