Support - I give this photo moderate support. In my opinion, it's good enough to be a good Featured Picture, but I'm interested to see what your views are. It's true that we can't see every single feather as vividly as in most of the pictures of birds we've been featuring lately, but is that really essential? This is a clear, very good portrait, overall, and the way it shows the bird's grip with its webbed feet is interesting and valuable. I also find the picture's composition simple and good, and it's all refreshingly clear and unblurry. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 14:01, 19 March 2016 (UTC)
Neutral a bit to blurry... The composition and the motif itself is great. --Hubertl 14:03, 19 March 2016 (UTC)
Comment - Thanks for your evaluation. My take on it is that no part of the bird is blurry. It's a slightly soft focus, but that's not only acceptable to me but better to me than pictures with very shallow depth of field, in which a small part of the picture is very clear and the rest is a blur. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 14:50, 19 March 2016 (UTC)
Oppose If this were sharp it would be FP. But it is very soft and just a bit above the minimum resolution. So I have to decline. -- Rftblr (talk) 15:12, 19 March 2016 (UTC)- Comment - Does anyone like this enough to vote for a feature? If not, I'll just withdraw my nomination and nominate another photo. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 15:34, 19 March 2016 (UTC)
- Oppose Per Rftblr. INeverCry 18:34, 19 March 2016 (UTC)
I withdraw my nomination - Thanks for your evaluations. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 22:15, 19 March 2016 (UTC)- Comment I would not have nominated this image, which I took some time ago with inferior equipment. Charles (talk) 13:34, 20 March 2016 (UTC)
