  Charles, would you have voted the same way if I had nominated this version (same image with a resolution of 4,7 Mpx, which would be acceptable I believe for this kind of photography)? --Poco² 12:43, 10 November 2018 (UTC)

• Yes I would I think. Because it's the Galapagos (or a zoo for that matter), one has easier access to wildlife and much more time for set up. If this was a rare and difficult-to-capture behaviour, the I would be more understanding. I may be in the minority, but for me trickier the shot, the more foregiving one should be: your leopard up a tree, for instance, had composition problems (too many branches) and technical quality issues, but was a great shot nevertheless.

• Ok, thanks for your honest answer, Charles, --Poco² 14:18, 10 November 2018 (UTC)
