•  Oppose - 1.5 megabytes isn't low res! But it is a rather bad scanning of a slide, with dust etc., and the edge of the frame, all too readily visible. As an absolute minimum, the slide frame should be cropped off. That white bar at the left could also be edited out. - MPF 21:50, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

•  Oppose - Poor photographic quality. Is this a scan? - 217.129.91.43 08:10, 28 March 2007 (UTC) Please log in to vote. Lycaon 11:54, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
•  Oppose It clearly is a scan - from a negative, judging by the lack of density. Looks like a bad lens/film combination failed to deliver any decent resolution (of detail!) even though the shot was well-focussed and decently scanned. I see no chance of redeeming this in post processing. Great shot otherwise (or would be if cropped form the right) with the owl looking good in its natural habitat. Would make a nice (small) print. mixpix 08:29, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
  •  Comment I've cropped off the edges of the slide frame and cleaned out the worst bits of dirt - MPF 11:57, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
  •  Comment It's surely usable as an illustration of the species in wikipedia, but the quality i definitely not FP-worthy. Lycaon 12:03, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
  •  Comment good effort MPF and certainly an improvement, but I still have to agree with Lycaon. --Dschwen 12:53, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
