Oppose Blurred birds and noise background,
chromatic aberration and Dust spot (notes added) --Photographer 00:34, 21 December 2018 (UTC)
- Keep in mind that this is 34 MP, a size rarely encountered for wildlife. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 08:50, 21 December 2018 (UTC)
- @The Photographer and King of Hearts: : I've uploaded a
new version (the dust spot and slight CA are gone, I applied some sharpness too and reduced the highlights) --Poco2 10:08, 21 December 2018 (UTC)

- Its a bit better, however, the CA is there (I added another note) --Photographer 01:09, 26 December 2018 (UTC)
- I don't consider this a serious judgement / oppose reason given the high resolution and the fact that I see nothing that I can improve. --Poco2 11:18, 26 December 2018 (UTC)
- Yes you are right, my vote is not because the
chromatic aberration problem, my vote is because the picture quality itself. I can see noise and motion focus problem and a and a quality that we should expect from a compact (like Canon SX30) camera but not a 50mpx DSLR Canon EOS 5DS. IMHO, the light was good and f/9 was probably excessive, the quality in general is not at the level of other FP of birds to which we are accustomed. --Photographer 19:27, 26 December 2018 (UTC)

Support Per King of Hearts. --Aristeas (talk) 11:29, 21 December 2018 (UTC)
Support - It's two birds, not one, so I take that into account. It's also a very nice composition. I think it's not at all crazy to oppose, but this is over the line for me. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 11:55, 21 December 2018 (UTC)

Support Nice composition and quality. The fact that it is 34 MP is not important. The quality is actually no better than you would get with a smaller sensor/fewer pixels. Charles (talk) 16:04, 21 December 2018 (UTC)
- Indeed - but it is also no worse. I was merely pointing out that we should not judge such a high-resolution image so harshly at the pixel level. —- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 17:20, 21 December 2018 (UTC)
- Oh, we should examine all images in detail. Charles (talk) 21:50, 21 December 2018 (UTC)
