- Support as nominator --Tomer T (talk) 21:51, 29 May 2011 (UTC)
- Oppose. Very small and, though interesting, I can not see any kind of massively redeeming EV to compensate for the size. J Milburn (talk) 14:20, 30 May 2011 (UTC)
SupportI find the EV spectacular, and yes it's small, but it's an irreproducible shot. Aaadddaaammm (talk) 15:07, 30 May 2011 (UTC)OpposeIts not reproducible in the sense that no one will be taking another shot, but getting higher resolution is quite possible. It'd involve buying a print and scanning it at much higher resolution. Pity about the high cost though. JJ Harrison (talk) 23:23, 30 May 2011 (UTC)- OK, fair point. My vote is stricken.

Is there a 2 Mpx rule here?Anyway, I just uploaded the largest version I could find, at 1.95 Mpx. I cannot attest to the sharpness or quality of this version since I merely found it online and had nothing to do with its creation otherwise. – Kerαunoςcopia◁galaxies 06:04, 3 June 2011 (UTC)

- Cool, changed my vote again: Support. Aaadddaaammm (talk) 09:36, 5 June 2011 (UTC)
- Support Current revision. JJ Harrison (talk) 09:49, 5 June 2011 (UTC)
- Comment: I am keeping my previous vote. Yes, it's bigger, but it's still not massive, nor is it great photography. If this was a photo of a child prodigy today, it would have been shot straight down. It's just not blowing me away. J Milburn (talk) 10:06, 5 June 2011 (UTC)
- Oppose Per J Milburn's reasoning. JFitch (talk) 10:59, 5 June 2011 (UTC)
