•  Oppose Nice photo, but 'city' background. I would prefer a more natural background. --Atoma 08:00, 25 May 2007 (UTC)
  • That's a habitat too. Modern times... --Dschwen 08:22, 25 May 2007 (UTC)

•  Oppose Same as Atoma -- Keta 10:50, 25 May 2007 (UTC)
•  Support Very good, i like the urban colors a lot, especially the olive green combination --Makro Freak 12:42, 25 May 2007 (UTC)
  • ... findest du Head shot nicht ein wenig brachial ? :) :) :)
    • Weisst Du was Schwäne für aggressive Biester sein können? ;-) --Dschwen 15:25, 25 May 2007 (UTC)
      • Ich weiß, es sind die einzigen Vögel vor denen mein Husky Respekt hat ;-) --Makro Freak 15:37, 25 May 2007 (UTC)
•  Oppose - Excellent portrait, but the background ruins it for FP - Alvesgaspar 15:11, 25 May 2007 (UTC)
  • From w:Swan on the Mute Swan: a common temperate Eurasian species, often semi-domesticated. --Dschwen 15:32, 25 May 2007 (UTC)
  • That's not the point, this background would have ruined a human portrait also. - Alvesgaspar 16:49, 25 May 2007 (UTC)
    • What exactly disturbs you on this background? Even with that background, this picture has a surprisingly clarity. --Makro Freak 17:40, 25 May 2007 (UTC)
    • What disturbs me is the geometrical pattern and the strong contrasts in the background. But it should be enough to say that this picture is short of perfection, giving the abilities of the photographer and the possibility of repeating the shot. Not promoting this picture now is clarly better than delisting it later, a practise that I don't normallt approve. - Alvesgaspar 18:30, 25 May 2007 (UTC)
•  Oppose Unnatural background. --Digon3 14:19, 26 May 2007 (UTC)
