•  Nominate

. Self nomination. A picture of a Bismuth single crystal. I think it turned out well, showing 90° crystal symmetry and coloration due to a thin oxide film. --Dschwen 12:00, 5 January 2006 (UTC)

•  Neutral It looks nice, but depth of field is quite low. Wouldn't it be possible to take the picture using a smaller aperture? --che 16:55, 5 January 2006 (UTC)

The entire front face is in focus, so there wouldn't really be any information gain. But if it bothers more people I could try. --Dschwen 17:28, 5 January 2006 (UTC)

•  Support interesting macro, I never saw such a crystal before. Maybe you could make the background completely white? --SehLax 21:13, 5 January 2006 (UTC)

•  Neutral - agree with Che, I find the rear a bit too out of focus; would probably support a fully-focussed retake - MPF 00:23, 7 January 2006 (UTC)

Then stay tuned, I'll try again on monday (must not forget tripod...).--Dschwen 00:57, 7 January 2006 (UTC)

•  Oppose It's good, but id don't think, that this is the best way to make a photograph of it (blurry, lighting) —norro 13:41, 11 January 2006 (UTC)
