Info created - uploaded - nominated by Basile Morin -- Basile Morin (talk) 00:45, 27 September 2018 (UTC)
Support There are minor focus stacking weaknesses but I think the level of detail is high enough to try a nomination here -- Basile Morin (talk) 00:45, 27 September 2018 (UTC)

Oppose I have no doubt this could be VI and QI, but with so many chaotic elements to it I don't see an FP here. Daniel Case (talk) 06:16, 27 September 2018 (UTC)
- This is a nest met in the countryside, and I find the light better than here-- Basile Morin (talk) 07:05, 27 September 2018 (UTC)

Oppose Like Daniel says, it's a pretty chaotic image. That can been helped if there are overall lines or shapes to define the subject. Here such a shape is the outline of the leaf "clump", but it is unfortunately cut. I sort of miss the top 1/3 of this image. A darker (or more uniform) background would also helped define the outline of the subject and made it more pleasing to the eye. Good idea, just not executed all the way. --Cart (talk) 11:33, 27 September 2018 (UTC)
Support I find beauty in the chaos. ― Gerifalte Del Sabana 14:24, 27 September 2018 (UTC)

-- Invalid vote (sockpuppet of a banned user) -- Basile Morin (talk) 01:42, 2 October 2018 (UTC)Oppose For others --Architas (talk) 09:00, 30 September 2018 (UTC)
- Basile, in other nominations, including some still on this page, he's been allowed one vote, so should this vote be restored or should all his other votes be deleted? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 07:13, 2 October 2018 (UTC)
- This user has been banned eight months ago, so is not allowed to vote here anymore. Changing one's name to go unnoticed and using multiple accounts is perfidious. These double votes prove that the intention was definitely dishonest and pure vandalism. I felt embarrassed many times before with these false accounts that I suspected fake too, with no mean to prove the cheating. These "oppose" looked like revenge in many situations, but were just accepted. Now there's no way to keep this vote here. As a nominator, I take the responsibility to strike it out, and if the author is unhappy, they can always try to remove their block by solving their issue with the admins. Not my problem. I will not fix the previous nominations that these fake votes also polluted, but as long as this one is active, I just put this poor review in the garbage. And I think all the other nominators should feel free to decide what to do in their own situations. The past discomfort is certainly worth this pleasure. We should not let us get attacked sneakily like that, because if we keep these votes, then it's too easy to start again, creating a new account, get quickly 50 edits to be allowed to vote, and then change the consensus for personal reasons. Even if we manage to stop them later (and too late), they would have enjoyed their misconduct. So not this time, sorry. Inadmissible -- Basile Morin (talk) 08:25, 2 October 2018 (UTC)
- I agree with Basile here. --Yann (talk) 05:09, 3 October 2018 (UTC)
- I agree, too, but then his votes should be subtracted from other active nominations. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 06:04, 3 October 2018 (UTC)
- I agree. Charles (talk) 11:20, 3 October 2018 (UTC)
