• Oppose. Interesting phenomenon, but it is obviously right at the edge of that camera's capabilities and the image quality is not so great (actually).--ragesoss (talk) 01:56, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
• Oppose gorgeous, but unsufficient resolution. Better to feature a different nebula, or a better image of this one (if such can be had). Durova^Charge! 04:49, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
• Oppose I agree that it is an amazing photo, but again, the resolution is poor, even at small sizes. Wadester16 (talk) 05:30, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
• Oppose Quite interesting, but technical quality prevents me from supporting. Spencer^T♦C 11:53, 22 August 2008 (UTC)
• withdraw In my haste to nominate this pic, I overlooked the reach of the camera, which appears to barely have even gotten an image of this subject. I withdraw. Thanks, --LordSunday 17:02, 23 August 2008 (UTC)

Not promoted - withdrawn. --jjron (talk) 18:54, 23 August 2008 (UTC)
