Oppose underwater shots are for sure not easy. Especially quality-wise. I don't oppose because of quality but because of composition. It doesn't convince me. --AngMoKio (talk) 20:03, 12 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Well, we both (the crab and me) are absolutely convinced that it would have been better, if FP had an image of a crab taken underwater, in the wild and in his natural habitat than two images of absolutely the same bird taken probably in a zoo,if for nothing else at least for a diversity you know. Thanks.--Mbz1 (talk) 21:13, 12 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I only judge pictures by what I see on it - no matter about the species and if we have it as FP already or not. And this picture has (for me) no wow. My oppose is not some kind of revenge or sth....so I don't really know why you bring up that eagle topic again. I am also really not keen on starting a personal fight with you... --AngMoKio (talk) 07:29, 16 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You are right, it is not a good place to bring up the issue with the FP images of the same subjects. Sorry about this.--Mbz1 (talk) 22:40, 19 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose As AngMoKio - technically very good image, but generally not enough for FP. --Karelj (talk) 20:37, 12 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Support considering the difficulty of the shot. --Kimse (talk) 20:44, 15 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Shot is IMO not difficult for this species (as it was not for this one, e.g.), but it is technically fine and has got the wow. Lycaon (talk) 22:08, 15 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The image is quite unique and not because of the subject, but because Lycaon was the first one to support it! I do not care,if the nomination is to pass or to fail (of course I wish it to pass), but in any case I would preserve it as a very rare and very dear to me phenomena. Thank you, Hans!--Mbz1 (talk) 23:38, 15 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Creating the mentioned 'wow' effect is a challenge in itself. --Kimse (talk) 23:03, 16 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Support Great picture. Very clear and worthy of FP status in my opinion. Cheers! Jnpet (talk) 05:09, 16 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose great quality and composition, but no wow -- Ianare (talk) 04:31, 18 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Comment I've made an edit here --Base64 (talk) 15:50, 18 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, Base64, If you'd like to nominate please do.--Mbz1 (talk) 16:20, 18 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, many details were lost during removal of CA.

result: 7 support, 3 oppose, 0 neutral => featured. Simonizer (talk) 12:13, 21 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
