•  Support Great picture. The fact that there is also a featured picture of crystal snow doesn't mean this shouldn't be featured. There are featured pictures of the same subject in the same position, at different moments of the day (see below) --Atoma 08:48, 14 February 2007 (UTC)

•  Oppose it looks like the ice is already melting. for such a zoom i would have expected more sharp edges on the ice (as seen on the already FP on the subject)-LadyofHats 19:48, 18 February 2007 (UTC)

 Comment The FP picture has a width of 2400px, the left version of this one is 5400px and the right one 2400px. Comparison should be done only with the right version of this photo, and they do seem to have approximately the same sharpness. The snow flag is definitely not melting, these photos are taken with a Low Temperature Scanning Electron Microscope at around -170°C (-270°F)... --Atoma 00:34, 19 February 2007 (UTC)
