  • Sad Oppose Great picture but the resolution is very much below our standard. Plus it would benefit greatly from increased resolution. Does one exist out there? Mattximus (talk) 15:03, 13 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Given how small and fast moving krill are, I think this is a pretty acceptable size. It would benefit from a scale, though. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.72.190.205 (talk) 18:31, 15 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • I beg to differ. This alt is from the same photo session (presumably), but with higher resolution.. Look at the details we are missing. And it shows that it's technically possible to have better resolution. The problem is that it's only the head. I believe there is a higher resolution image of this creature somewhere. But for now it's too low resolution for a featured image. Mattximus (talk) 00:12, 17 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Excellent image, unfortunately it is too low resolution. If the image were available in the resolution of the head image this would be a very easy choice. CFCF (talk) 13:31, 18 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
