Hello Durova. Thanks for you support on one of my images. Also, I do believe the halo's were added deliberately, to show a better conception of the Black Hole. - Ohmpandya We need to talk...contribs 04:11, 20 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  • Oppose. Neither the image description ("A stunning image of a quasar black hole") nor its use in the article help me understand what it going on in this image, or advances my knowledge of black holes. Also strikes me that a lot of 'artistic license' has been used. Therefore I can't see very high encyclopaedic value. --jjron (talk) 07:25, 20 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Incidentally, FWIW an identical image, Image:Quasar.jpg, exists in the Quasar article, except that was uploaded three months ago by Gingojo, rather than this one that was uploaded what looks like today by the nominator. --jjron (talk) 08:36, 20 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
