Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/Silvereye juvenile

Support as nominator — I took this in an orchard where these birds were practicaly swarming over the ripe fruit, the white patch in the BG is netting over a tree to (unsuccesfully) keep them out, this is a juvenile which was being tended by several adults Benjamint444 09:09, 5 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Weak support There is some slight artifacting around the edge, and the branch which cuts off part of the tail is distracting, but the detail of the feathers (in some places) is razor sharp.--Here T oHelp 14:02, 5 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose because of strong compression artifacts around bird, possibly due to oversharpening. This appears to be the original image of the composite that created a storm of opposition here. --Janke | Talk 15:01, 5 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose - Agree with Janke. Also, background is distracting and strongly pixelated at the upper left corner. Alvesgaspar 17:33, 5 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose, definitely oversharpened. --Phoenix (talk) 23:20, 5 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose per Janke. For the halo of artifacts around the bird, my first guess was jpg artifacts, but I can also see a bit of oversharpening. The image is pretty good, and if it was cleaner at 100%, I'd have supported it.-Andrew c 01:18, 8 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
