  • Too cute! but Oppose :( - I'm not a photographer other than happy snaps, but from my time here I believe this may have a "blown sky"? :/ Matthewedwards (talk · contribs) 02:53, 10 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
    • Hmm, I don't think the sky is a distraction here, it's pretty obscured by the leaves and the kittens. I'd say that cuteness works in favor of this photo since the Featured Picture criteria includes "(The photo) illustrates the subject in a compelling way, making the viewer want to know more." --Pine 04:18, 10 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
      • I agree, the out of focus blown areas are incidental to this image and are not a significant problem IMO. Ðiliff «» (Talk) 09:56, 11 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose per Matthewedwards and the distracting unfocused leaves around. Jkadavoor (talk) 16:31, 10 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Kittens. With big paws. Up a tree. Kittens. Probably too dangerous for FP status: the Cheezburger people say pics like this cause something they call 'splort' (viewers' heads asplode from the cute). Plutonium27 (talk) 00:59, 17 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
