Comment- Not too sure about this one (or the one beneath for that matter). They're good pictures, but the size has made them out of focus. The colors don't show up too nicely either. I don't know if this is how these birds really look, but I don't think it's anything spectacular. Cliffhanger407 18:49, 8 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I have to agree, there is a bit too much shadow on this one for the colours to show properly. Raven4x4x 02:08, 9 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Uploaded an edited version. I think the same comments I said on other photo apply to this one aswell. --Fir0002 05:44, 9 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
These are a lot better, but I still agree with Fir002 that if you downsized the overall image size, it would look a lot crisper. Having a big image is nice sometimes, but it's a little disconcerting when you zoom in and it's just that little bit out of focus. Cliffhanger407 02:57, 10 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks. Half-size version added. Stephen Turner 09:39, 10 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
I'll have to oppose. I much prefer the back view in this case, as the bright colours of the bird are less prominent here. Raven4x4x 09:55, 11 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Support Even though the tail is a little out of focus, it isn't as bothersome in this one as the face in the other. Colors and general focus look nicer. Cliffhanger407 00:54, 12 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
( + ) Support 3rd Version --Fir0002 10:23, 16 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Weak oppose. The tail is still out of focus in the third version and the artificial twig is annoying. Enochlau 22:33, 20 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
