•  Support -- Tomascastelazo (talk) 16:24, 24 January 2011 (UTC)
•  Support Nice composition and lighting. Steven Walling 22:16, 24 January 2011 (UTC)
  •  Comment-- the color composition is, of course, very attractive. The spacial composition not so much. For example, there is a strong diagonal of yoyos that is cut off at the lower right. A flawless photo would have the third yoyo completely inside. Downsampledbokeh (talk) 01:00, 26 January 2011 (UTC)
•  Support Hermosos colores! --MotherForker (talk) 13:35, 27 January 2011 (UTC)
•  Weak support --Snaevar (talk) 11:07, 29 January 2011 (UTC)
•  Support Per MotherForker: beautiful colors! TFCforever (talk) 18:03, 29 January 2011 (UTC)
•  Oppose Nice colours but composition seems a bit random - Benh (talk) 11:29, 30 January 2011 (UTC)
•  Support nice view (and one has to crop somewhere) -- KlausFoehl (talk) 13:37, 30 January 2011 (UTC)

Bullshit. That book-copy-pasted phrase we all know would mean something if there were not space wasted in the top-left. Downsampledbokeh (talk) 15:20, 2 February 2011 (UTC)

•  Support Awesome colors and quality. --Lošmi (talk) 02:23, 1 February 2011 (UTC)
•  Support --SHION (talk) 13:05, 1 February 2011 (UTC)
  • Number of edits and account age too low.--Snaevar (talk) 13:22, 1 February 2011 (UTC)
•  Comment-- A teaching or remainder to the photographer. There is a trick that can help in pictures like this. When there are so many bright colors (Fall pictures, carnivals, crazy parties ;) ). Use live view in black-and-white mode (and shoot RAW to get the colors in the file). This allows you to concentrate con the actual composition. Downsampledbokeh (talk) 15:24, 2 February 2011 (UTC)

•  Comment @Dwonsampledbokeh, that is a good trick... let´s see if an old dog can learn it... I hate the live view, but will try it at least once, and take it from there... and btw, I do have other versions of this pic, and you may have a point, however, this is the one that was uploaded... --Tomascastelazo (talk) 17:50, 2 February 2011 (UTC)

I dislike the life view too. That is just a trick and some people don't really need it. It is something related to the Stroop effect. Downsampledbokeh (talk) 01:32, 3 February 2011 (UTC)
