  • Comment I would suggest putting this in the main article before anyone notices. It doesn't cut it for the people here to be a picture in the gallery. victorrocha (talk) 02:53, 27 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    • ..and neither does it cut it for the people here when an image is just crammed into an article for the nomination. --Dschwen 03:42, 28 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
      • If an image is of higher quality and encyclopedic value than its counterparts, then why not? NauticaShades 21:41, 29 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
        • If you stuck this picture over text it would probably be better than having it in the gallery, the encyclopedic value of this image is very high so anywhere would probably be better than at the bottom.(although I do not condone putting it randomly). victorrocha (talk) 05:19, 31 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment The colours look very synthetic. Washed out in places and over saturated in others. Good detail though. Capital photographer (talk) 07:13, 27 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose - unnecessarily shallow DOF (not all of the cut face is sharp) for a studio shot. Per Capital the colours look odd but the detail is good. What looks like blue CA fringing around much of it - emphasised due to the white background. - Peripitus (Talk) 04:38, 28 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support Good quality in my opinion. Could also be used to illustrate some sort of biology concept, such as Vascular tissue. M.nelson (talk) 19:43, 28 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose Per above comments - the shadow is particularly afflicted by the blue tinging. To me it looks like the image was backlit which would explain the poor lighting/colours. --Fir0002 08:04, 1 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose If you cut through a strawberry, do it to show that it's a compound fruit. Not a compelling image. --Blechnic (talk) 06:59, 3 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
