•  Support Mind the dip! Picture taken while driving (don't tell). -- Lycaon (talk) 13:33, 21 November 2008 (UTC)
•  Oppose Funny but nothing for higher encyclopedic use. --Herrick (talk) 15:56, 21 November 2008 (UTC)

   Comment A featured picture doesn't need to be encyclopedic. It just needs to fall within the scope. Diti (talk to the penguin) 17:58, 21 November 2008 (UTC)

   Comment Beats any zoo picture though ;-) Lycaon (talk) 23:17, 21 November 2008 (UTC)

•  Oppose Back side of the ostrich and road in bad composition. --Jagro (talk) 17:23, 21 November 2008 (UTC)
•  Support I think this picture's good! --Mr. Mario (talk) 23:59, 21 November 2008 (UTC)
•  Support One of my favorite images -- the first time I saw this not only did I laugh but I also said "Wow". (I so support this that I have to sit on my hands to not log in from some of the other ips I have access to and vote....) -- carol (talk) 06:33, 22 November 2008 (UTC)
•  Oppose Upsampled. Flying Freddy (talk) 06:53, 22 November 2008 (UTC) removed inappropriate joke :-(. Lycaon (talk) 16:48, 24 November 2008 (UTC)
• If you look at the upload log, you will find that Lycaon just uploaded the original version, not an upsampled version. --Digon3 ^talk 15:09, 22 November 2008 (UTC)
  • I think he was making a joke :) Noodle snacks (talk) 22:21, 22 November 2008 (UTC)
•  Support 4 given cirumstances and under strictly abidance 4 traffic regulations it's a great shot. --Richard Bartz (talk) 12:31, 22 November 2008 (UTC)
•  Support Might be reframed later if necessary ; composition is interesting, the neck falls exactly between 2 road signs. Maybe a little bit too much road on the right hand side, but then the ostrich would be too centered... oh well, i think it's very good for a picture taken while drivin of a running ostrich. --JY Rehby (talk) 17:48, 22 November 2008 (UTC)
•  Oppose -- Too bad composition for my taste. Manuel R. (talk) 20:53, 22 November 2008 (UTC)
•  Support Maybe not the best quality, but the feeling is good. Calandrella (talk) 21:24, 22 November 2008 (UTC)
•  Support --Simonizer (talk) 22:36, 22 November 2008 (UTC)
•  Oppose It is unusual and perhaps comical, but I don't think it meets the compositional or quality requirements. Noodle snacks (talk) 22:41, 22 November 2008 (UTC)
•  Oppose Bad composition, and sorta dull, IMO. diego_pmc (talk) 12:14, 23 November 2008 (UTC)
•  Oppose As other opponents. --Karelj (talk) 22:06, 23 November 2008 (UTC)
•  Oppose Too grey, no sky... >>> composition should be better. --Aktron (talk) 15:13, 24 November 2008 (UTC)
  • I challenge you to do better in a split second while driving a car with one hand and shooting pictures with the other ;-). Lycaon (talk) 16:48, 24 November 2008 (UTC)
•  Oppose overcropped.--Juan de Vojníkov (talk) 15:50, 24 November 2008 (UTC)
  • Nonsense. Only about 250px cropped from the bottom to remove part of he car's bonnet. Lycaon (talk) 16:48, 24 November 2008 (UTC)
    • Well and thats a problem. It si done from unforable place, so it cant be better.--Juan de Vojníkov (talk) 12:11, 25 November 2008 (UTC)
