- I'm confused about the perspective... are we looking down or across at the ears? Also, do you know the cultivar? –Juliancolton | Talk 18:03, 11 November 2010 (UTC)
- It is Zea mays var. indentata, or dented field corn (maize). It is a good example, as it won "best in show" in a Minnesota county fair with many entries in the category. The display box was resting on a shelf at an angle; I positioned the camera to look directly at it from above. Jonathunder (talk) 23:47, 11 November 2010 (UTC)
- Thanks, Support - not anything extraordinary, but straightforward and valuable. –Juliancolton | Talk 23:50, 11 November 2010 (UTC)

Question -- Will you please explain why, so we can all learn from it? Alvesgaspar (talk) 20:19, 11 November 2010 (UTC)
Neutral The corn is in very good quality, but the panel or tray that it's on is not so nice. --IdLoveOne (talk) 01:42, 12 November 2010 (UTC)
- It is like the typical still life picture. (the panel)Grinatyou (talk) 06:14, 12 November 2010 (UTC)
- Neutral -- Not so good not so bad. Mulazimoglu (talk) 07:05, 12 November 2010 (UTC)
- Oppose Not really extraordinary... --Citron (talk) 16:28, 12 November 2010 (UTC)
- Oppose No problem with the subject. A "banal" or "non extraordinary" subject can make a pretty good featured picture. But the more the subject is "banal", the better photographic technics must be. Something like "strong mitigating reasons". It is not the case here, sorry.--Jebulon (talk) 10:21, 17 November 2010 (UTC)
