- Oppose Because I really don't like the background. It also has a few other issues (some of which might be fixed or improved upon), it is a tad soft, noisy and needs a black point and/or contrast adjustment (looks a little washed out and a histogram confirms).

- Weak oppose Encyclopedic and basically a gorgeous flower, but I agree with Noodle snacks. Low resolution for such a large image; perhaps it's compressed? Would love to see a reshoot under slightly different conditions: either a different angle or less depth of field could reduce the distracting qualities of this background.

- Oppose Highly distracting background and extreme noisy. Also per the points mentioned by Noodle snacks. —αἰτίας •discussion• 23:52, 18 September 2008 (UTC)
