•  Nominate

I am nominating this picture because it represents one of the greatest achievements of man. It is also clear, colorful, and is unique due to the moon landscape in the background. Ironchef8000 17:03, 30 October 2005

•  Oppose ACK. YolanC + there is no image description and license given norro 09:24, 31 October 2005 (UTC)
•  Oppose The image should be suggested because it has technically good features, not because "of the greatest achievements of man". Technically, this image is low resolution, bad composition, and frankly, it doesn't even look like it was taken on the Moon. Rama 10:28, 31 October 2005 (UTC)

  Yes, why is the flag waving? There is no atmosphere on the moon and therefore no wind. Strange. norro 17:34, 31 October 2005 (UTC)

  perhaps he had a leak in his space suit and was blowing the flag about with that :-) MPF 15:29, 8 November 2005 (UTC)
