Support High educational value, high resolution (6000*6000 pixels) -- Dipankan001 (talk) 13:59, 27 March 2012 (UTC)
Comment Very impressive, but what is the black area on the top left? (see annotations) Tomer T (talk) 17:36, 27 March 2012 (UTC)
Question What's its cientific name? Cygnus Loop, Veil Nebula, Cygnus Loop Nebula? I think it should be renamed. --Kadellar (talk) 17:49, 27 March 2012 (UTC)
- It's scientific name is Cygnus Loop, adding the word "nebula". @TomerT - This is space photography. Everything is not in our hands. And for a little empty space, you're gonna dismiss this beautiful picture from FP? Just can't believe it..... (No offend to you, Tomer T) Dipankan001 (talk) 03:49, 28 March 2012 (UTC)
Oppose Very nice picture, but because of the empty black area, that Tomer T spotted, it cannot be featured. It also needs to be renamed to something more scientific. -- Achird (talk) 18:17, 27 March 2012 (UTC)
Done It's renamed to a scientific name. Dipankan001 (talk) 15:40, 28 March 2012 (UTC)- This is how you take space pictures. Conf. File:Eagle nebula pillars.jpg. Łukasz Wolf Golowanow (talk) 08:57, 29 March 2012 (UTC)
- I opposed that for the same reason, and it was not featured here. So I Oppose this. We have many featured space pictures which managed to point the telescope in enough places to make an aesthetically pleasing image. --99of9 (talk) 11:11, 29 March 2012 (UTC)
- That was done due to incomplete image, the black boxes at the top right. Are you trying to say that we should not accept space pictures as FP? They are the original beautiful one's capturing almost 40% of the featured images in Commons. Dipankan001 (talk) 11:26, 29 March 2012 (UTC)
- This one is incomplete too, that's the point. See the image annotation. Of course we feature lots of good (complete) space pics. --99of9 (talk) 12:31, 29 March 2012 (UTC)

- Comment - Perhaps the black area could be cropped out, or declared a supermassive black hole. -mattbuck (Talk) 02:06, 30 March 2012 (UTC)
- I am having a bit of problem with my image editing software, can anybody crop it please? Dipankan001 (talk) 03:50, 30 March 2012 (UTC)
- Oppose the "black hole" area. --Alchemist-hp (talk) 23:52, 31 March 2012 (UTC)
