Info African elephant crossing the Zambesi. Created, uploaded and nominated by Lycaon (talk) 23:45, 12 September 2010 (UTC)
Support -- Lycaon (talk) 23:45, 12 September 2010 (UTC)- Support It seems like everyone on Commons is going to Africa except me! --The High Fin Sperm Whale 23:48, 12 September 2010 (UTC)
- You can go to Poland. :) Wolf (talk) 07:52, 13 September 2010 (UTC)
Oppose Dark, not well lit and only a small portion of the elephant is seen (which is not recognizable if one was not aware it was an elephant). --Muhammad (talk) 00:32, 13 September 2010 (UTC)
Comment I actually like the image very much, but cannot vote because I am involved with lycaon, or rather lycaon is involved with me :), but IMO this image is an absolutely great illustration for the article w:Loch Ness Monster 
.--Mbz1 (talk) 02:43, 13 September 2010 (UTC)- Support unusual behaviour of an elephant, great lighting --Ikiwaner (talk) 05:19, 13 September 2010 (UTC)
- Support Wolf (talk) 07:52, 13 September 2010 (UTC)
- Support: Dramatic ≡HoverFly (Contribs...Chat?) 13:23, 13 September 2010 (UTC)
- Support Precious, great light, good movement--Luis Miguel Bugallo Sánchez (talk) 17:30, 13 September 2010 (UTC)
- Support Unusual, but very interesting and nice. Furthermore, I would like to say to THFSW that he's not alone...(but I don't know Poland too)...--Jebulon (talk) 09:57, 14 September 2010 (UTC)
- Support Rare picture.--Citron (talk) 18:02, 14 September 2010 (UTC)
- Oppose Interesting, but bad lighting, subject's almost completely not visible - not FP quality. Valued images would probably be better. --IdLoveOne (talk) 18:58, 14 September 2010 (UTC)
- Can't support, 'cause I've already supported, but I think no one in their sane mind will contest my contestation, will they? And so as to keep the vote count kosher, I've stricken ILO's previous vote. Wolf (talk) 23:04, 14 September 2010 (UTC)
- Support - the claimed FPX is nonsense, the pic is over 5MPX; I suspect IdLoveOne has mis-read the 2MPX limit as "2MB" - MPF (talk) 23:08, 14 September 2010 (UTC)
- Yes, my mistake, so I retract and stick to my original POV. --IdLoveOne (talk) 23:30, 14 September 2010 (UTC)
- Oppose Way too dark. Interesting subject, but not Featured quality. Steven Walling 01:04, 15 September 2010 (UTC)
- Support it is an interesting composition. Ggia (talk) 08:00, 16 September 2010 (UTC)
- Support The colours and composition are just awesome! --mathias K 10:21, 16 September 2010 (UTC)
- Support -- I hesitated a lot on this one before I realized that this picture has two strong components, the aesthetical and the illustrative, both mitigating the somehow less-than-perfect quality. -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 23:22, 16 September 2010 (UTC)
- Support The lighting is one of best things about this shot IMO. That is what creates the mood and colours, that is what highlights the spray (which would be very boring if the trunk was in full light). --99of9 (talk) 10:33, 17 September 2010 (UTC)
- Support --Michael Gäbler (talk) 22:47, 17 September 2010 (UTC)
- Support I like the atmosphere which the lighting makes. -- Ximonic (talk) 17:52, 18 September 2010 (UTC)
- Υπέρ --патриот8790Say whatever you want 05:32, 19 September 2010 (UTC)
- Support --Karel (talk) 21:50, 19 September 2010 (UTC)
- Oppose dark, unsharp, not much subject. --kaʁstn Disk/Cat 14:01, 20 September 2010 (UTC)
