Oppose This image is not used on the species page for it, the lead image File:Nelumno nucifera open flower - botanic garden adelaide2.jpg is a technically better photograph and already a FP. This image is only used as part of a template, thats why it's on those pages. — raeky ^{(talk | edits)} 04:40, 23 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. No specific EV in any article it is in (ie not there other than in the template). Mostlyharmless (talk) 05:46, 23 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. Limited EV as per above, and the crop is too tight on the left side. Ðiliff «» (Talk) 08:26, 23 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
