  • Oppose There are weird artifacts below the scale; they almost look like half-toning, the subject is cut off, the colours and sharpness are not the greatest, and we don't really get a clear view of any of the actual fruits. It was nice to see the variety of colours, but a closer shot that, say, showed a single whole fruit and a cross section would have more value. 99.236.51.219 (talk) 00:00, 11 June 2008 (UTC) Sorry, that was me.

  • Oppose I agree with matt in seeing the weird artifacts...also, I find the scale and the nuts annoy me. SpencerT♦C 10:56, 11 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose Artifacts. Also, while I accept, perhaps even prefer, the composition to a studio shot of only one fruit, it's cut off. Great idea, bad results.--HereToHelp (talk to me) 13:02, 11 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
