Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/Phalloidin stained cells

Reason: This remarkable image displays endothelial cells' DNA, proteins and actin filaments in blue, green and red respectively. The red flourescent phalloidin is actually the toxin isolated from the death cap mushroom (often used in cellular imaging for this very purpose). The image presents very little cell crowding/confusion to the eye. It is eerily beuatiful; natural yet alien. One might as easily believe this was taken from the Hubble telescope as from a light microscope.

Oppose size, resolution, clarity --Bridgecross 15:20, 2 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Strong Oppose Size. It's beautiful, though, and I'd happily support a larger version. --TotoBaggins 15:31, 2 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Same for me - is there a larger version that we could re-evaluate? tiZom_(2¢) 20:01, 2 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Wow, if you poke around the web for fluorescence microscopy, you find some absolutely gorgeous pics. We can definitely do better than this nom. Look at this series for mitosis: http://micro.magnet.fsu.edu/cells/fluorescencemitosis/index.html

Oppose, too small. Jorcoga ^(Hi!/Review)00:30, Saturday, 3 February '07
Oppose It must be 1000px in one direction and its about half that. It's best when pictures aren't in jpg format, then you get the best picture.--γιατί ^{Sign Here | ESP.} 03:20, 3 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
