Oppose, speedy close, it has to be used and stable in an article. See if/where it fits and leave it there... if it can remain there without controversy for a few weeks then you can retry this nomination. gren グレン 21:30, 19 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
OK, should I leave the subpage in the meanwhile? Yosarian (talk) 21:40, 19 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Currently the image is in flower and lingam. I'll check this again at the end of the nomination if there is consensus to promote. MER-C 09:57, 20 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Comment It's not really very in focus: The depth of field doesn't encompass the hand. Shoemaker's Holiday (talk) 20:55, 20 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Weak oppose - Blurry, and there are issues with DOF. — neuro^{(talk)(review)} 04:20, 21 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Regretful Oppose - I like the colours, composition and subject matter, but we can't overlook the unsharpness and DOF issues. Sorry. —Vanderdecken∴ ∫ξ φ 12:13, 22 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
