•  Comment Yes, IMO FP - but the crop could be better, without half birds. --XRay ^talk 17:32, 20 July 2015 (UTC)

@XRay:  Done --Laitche (talk) 17:56, 20 July 2015 (UTC)

 Support Better. Hopefully you like this crop. Thanks. --XRay ^talk 18:00, 20 July 2015 (UTC)

•  Oppose A normal picture of a normal day --Σπάρτακος (talk) 19:03, 20 July 2015 (UTC)
•  Support Wish I see more of theses. Am not lucky enough to witness that on my own normal days, and certainly not normal by FPC's standard (not a panorama, nor a shell, nor a church...). I would try to make the cables parallels to strengthen the composition. - Benh (talk) 19:17, 20 July 2015 (UTC)
•  Support Unusual FPC of birds. 😄 ArionEstar 😜 (talk) 19:58, 20 July 2015 (UTC)
•  Oppose Sorry,but not wow for me --LivioAndronico ^(talk) 20:12, 20 July 2015 (UTC)

orz --Laitche (talk) 21:32, 20 July 2015 (UTC)

In this way will be more original --LivioAndronico ^(talk) 21:36, 20 July 2015 (UTC)

•  Support I like the birds sitting on this cables looking a bit like a sheet music. --Wladyslaw (talk) 21:35, 20 July 2015 (UTC)
•  Support Very nice idea and composition. --Code (talk) 21:36, 20 July 2015 (UTC)
•  Support --Kikos (talk) 06:08, 21 July 2015 (UTC)
•  Support per above --Martin Falbisoner (talk) 06:33, 21 July 2015 (UTC)

•  Support Very nice! --Tremonist (talk) 15:25, 21 July 2015 (UTC)
•  Oppose This is a very classic type image, very cliché, and generally works nice. In this case I think that the blue is too overwhelming and takes away the punch that this type of image has visually. I prefer much lighter sky and in black and white. This image, generally speaking is about photographic rythm. I would support this image if the sky was lightened by 2 f stops. --Tomascastelazo (talk) 16:27, 21 July 2015 (UTC)
•  Support --Jacek Halicki (talk) 21:41, 21 July 2015 (UTC)
•  Oppose Great idea but, per Tomas, background is a little too dark. Also I think the dead space at top and bottom could be cropped down a bit. Daniel Case (talk) 03:20, 23 July 2015 (UTC)
•  Comment @Tomas： @Daniel：  Lightened. --Laitche (talk) 10:19, 23 July 2015 (UTC)
