  • Neutral. I'm not good enough at judging pictures to make a decision on this one, but I have noticed some blurring here and there on places that is not the center of the image (so it may not be enough to kill this), and I'm not entirely sure about the brightness (seems pretty bright) and sharpness on the plant.

  • weak oppose - nicely shows the plant, but the background is cluttered and the plant doesn't really stick out.. Maybe if the camera angle were lower or the light wasn't as direct on the plant. Debivort 22:53, 23 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  • Oppose For a picture like this in a clutered enviroment you almost have take a macro shot otherwise the background takes too much away from the subject. The angle is also uninteresting. -Fcb981 06:34, 24 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
