- Oppose In comparison to the other image on the page File:Larus canus1.jpg, this image is very bland and "common." Sadly the linked image can't be a FP due to the very blown highlights. For such a common bird we can definitely get better, sorry. — raekyt 05:18, 16 April 2011 (UTC)
- Oppose. Got to agree with Raeky. J Milburn (talk) 01:27, 17 April 2011 (UTC)
- Thanks for the feedback. I assume this isn't going to make it as a FP now, but any feedback about improving the image would be welcomed: the bird is fairly common, so I will have a go at reshooting it. NotFromUtrecht (talk) 06:49, 19 April 2011 (UTC)
- Pretty much my only complaint would be the blown highlights. Other than that quality is pretty nice: smooth bokeh, subject is sharp, bird is completely in the frame and shot from a good angle. Jujutacular talk 13:20, 19 April 2011 (UTC)
- I think it's pretty good, but while there's a number of exceptions, it's usually preferred to get the full bird - this one completely loses the feet. --jjron (talk) 13:23, 21 April 2011 (UTC)
