  • Weak Support Actually works pretty well in my opinion. The blown highlights from the flash lighting are unfortunate. Noodle snacks (talk) 06:55, 21 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose Very cool (and dangerous?), but technical quality and composition should be improved. Besides the highlights, it's not quite sharp enough IMO. But mainly, the composition is crooked and has too much clutter in it (including fingers!). Bonus points if you could somehow include Robert Patrick in the picture. ;-) Fletcher (talk) 15:10, 21 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose cool photo but tilted and bad composition. --Alchemist-hp (talk) 20:00, 21 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose. Looks a bit snapshotty and has unappealing flash lighting. --Dschwen 16:28, 22 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
