•  Info The red color in background is reflection of the bridge, they re-painted that bridge recently and the white lines are en:Nobori of Sanada maru. It was very beautiful scene so I've taken this photo. |c|u|n| by Laitche -- Laitche (talk) 12:17, 11 December 2016 (UTC)

•  Support wonderful colors --Martin Falbisoner (talk) 12:45, 11 December 2016 (UTC)
•  Regretful neutral It is a very nice scene, like an old wood print, and the red color gives it a bit of a sinister aspect. I would really like to support this, but unfortunately the nobori reflections have ended up in a distracting part of the image "dropping" from the birds beak and in a funny way making it harder to see its legs. --cart-Talk 12:49, 11 December 2016 (UTC)

• cart: I expected that opinion, Haha :) --Laitche (talk) 13:03, 11 December 2016 (UTC)

• Of course you did. :) Since you are an extremely skilled photographer, you know how a perfect photo looks and what we might comment on. --cart-Talk 13:19, 11 December 2016 (UTC)

•  Comment - There are three elements to this picture: The reflections, which are beautiful, the bird, which is beautiful, and then the - what? Garbage can? All three elements distract me from the others. I haven't decided whether to vote, but if someone held a gun to my head right now and demanded a supporting or opposing vote, I'd probably oppose, even though I certainly respect the photo. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 13:13, 11 December 2016 (UTC)

• Ikan: Hahaha, I also expected the opinion about Garbage can! I really don't know what is that, that thing is floating on the middle of the pond... That is not a Garbage can! --Laitche (talk) 13:46, 11 December 2016 (UTC)

•  Support Different. Charles (talk) 14:09, 11 December 2016 (UTC)
•  Support I got feeling like Bird in Las Vegas. So true, different say Charles. Why not, quality is good, and so strange, it can be combined in City and nature, or similar. I saw once on Animal planet something simlar, wild animals in the city. Since naming already is there "...in Osaka", and Osaka is big town. --Mile (talk) 14:15, 11 December 2016 (UTC)

•  Oppose The white bokeh is distracting as is the ugly thing it's perched on. lNeverCry 21:10, 11 December 2016 (UTC)
•  Oppose the red contrast to the white bird is too bulky. --Alchemist-hp (talk) 22:22, 11 December 2016 (UTC)
•  Oppose A noble failure. Like cart I would like to support, but unfortunately the red background overwhelms the bird too much, even though it seems to me you took every step you could to keep that from happening (A lesser photographer/processor would have left a lot more posterization in the background for one thing, for that Instagram look ). I don't blame you for looking at it and thinking "why the hell not?"; I don't blame you for trying. Daniel Case (talk) 18:13, 12 December 2016 (UTC)
• I respectfully  Oppose per others and my comments above. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 01:48, 13 December 2016 (UTC)
•  Support though maybe artistically a bit too much saturated color, it's a great cottonlike bird in a great composition Christian Ferrer ^(talk) 20:35, 13 December 2016 (UTC)
