  • Cropping is always a subjective matter which is why I try to upload the full image before cropping. If I made a wider crop, there would be many objecting: "too much tree trunk". It shouldn't really be an issue for FP. Also, the way that Wikipedia places images in the infobox means that a 'thin' portrait style displays very well and enhances the article - the whole idea behind the FP criteria.

I see from the commons nomination that my opinion is in the minority. And agree with the subjectivity of it all. It is a very nice image and good EV, and good lighting. Bammesk (talk) 14:35, 13 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
