• Oppose Beautiful subject, but the right side is quite dark, and the left wing is slightly overexposed in certain areas.-- mcshadypl ^TC 23:08, 3 September 2012 (UTC)

• Weak oppose. I'm not really sold on the composition, sorry. The darkness on the right is particularly distracting. The whole thing feels a little artificial. J Milburn (talk) 08:24, 6 September 2012 (UTC)
• Regretful Oppose Appears that the photographer used the flash. The blown highlights kill the picture. Dusty777 17:44, 7 September 2012 (UTC)
