•  Support Today was the French national celebration. I brought my non-pro gear with me, concentrated mostly on the planes, and here's what I got. →Diti the penguin — 23:19, 14 July 2009 (UTC)

•  Oppose Picture is too static... props are frozen, thus depriving the image of a sense of motion. In a back to front motion, a slower shutter speed is able to freeze the plane´s movement, and at the same time blurr the props. Composition and angle of view uninteresting. There is no dynamics in image. --Tomascastelazo (talk) 16:41, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
•  Oppose Don't mind the non-blurred propellers, but it's not a very exciting angle. /Daniel78 (talk) 22:50, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
•  Oppose No WOW. --Aktron (talk) 08:47, 16 July 2009 (UTC)
•  Oppose Common image, nothing special. --Karel (talk) 14:08, 17 July 2009 (UTC)
  •  Comment How common is a photo for which you have up to 5 seconds to take it, once a year? ;) →Diti the penguin — 22:58, 18 July 2009 (UTC)
    • I think Karel is referring to the composition, rather than the circumstances in which the picture was taken. Not to cast aspersions on your photo taking ability, but pictures of military planes against a blue sky are quite common. The fact that it was taken at a special event does nothing to ease the lack of (for want of a better word) 'wow'. Technically, every picture is special, as you can never take the same picture again. But that does not mean that every picture is featured. Please, keep your photos coming though! Sarcastic ShockwaveLover (talk) 11:34, 20 July 2009 (UTC)
      • Thank you a lot for the precision! I sure will, but I'm waiting for my “own Featured Pictures” to come out, so far I only have a some out of thousands of photos. I'll try again… later. ;) →Diti the penguin — 21:44, 21 July 2009 (UTC)
