  • Comment, I find how the DOF was done to be distracting. The amount of distortion in the foreground isn't so swell... also, I think someone with a good camera and some image software could make a cleaner version. gren グレン 22:46, 24 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak oppose. It's definitely got my vote in terms of composition and artistic creativity, but there's a slight blur, as if the camera moved during the exposure, and the DOF is too low, I think, for this type of image. Good shot, but there are a few flaws that are too big to ignore. --Tewy 22:58, 24 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak oppose, personally I'm not a fan of the composition, too abstract and sterile and not ... foody enough for me. (Go and tell me that's not an official reason for opposing). For such a common subject, I'm sure a better photo could be taken. —Pengo 23:54, 24 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  • Oppose Just not up to FP standard. It's a neat composition but lighting ain't too good, macro technique (and lens, unfortunately) are poor and ultimately (as 8thstar points out) we could do better. mikaul 18:56, 25 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose The loss of DOF at front and back is too distracting - Adrian Pingstone 18:52, 26 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
