Reason: Good EV. Particularly difficult to properly expose a white bird with a whitish sky behind it. Given the conditions it was taken in, quality of the image is quite good.

Oppose Not that sharp and the background is distracting. Those thorns look nasty! I usually try and get another tree or something behind the subject in such a lighting situation. JJ Harrison (talk) 06:28, 18 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Support I like that the texture of the bird's feathers is so visible. Pine^talk 09:21, 19 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Agree with JJ, it's a decent image but despite the difficult conditions it was taken in it isn't quite good enough to join the 'best' pictures on Wikipedia. Fallschirmjäger ✉ 14:51, 22 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
