•  Support Gorgeous colours, perfect composition, amazing depth of field. JDiPierro 01:24, 9 May 2008 (UTC)
•  Oppose I like washed out flowers at background and I love colors, but I do not like the front flower cut and IMO it is noisy. Sorry.--Mbz1 03:38, 9 May 2008 (UTC)
  • It's not even close to noisy. You're the only person I know who would look at the darkish corner of the image instead of looking at the flower. This was shot with a 6MP SLR with the lowest ISO setting. You can't get much better noise control than this. -- Ram-Man 03:51, 9 May 2008 (UTC)

  Would it be the right thing to say that now you know the second person? :-)--Mbz1 14:12, 9 May 2008 (UTC)

•  Oppose - Agree with Mbz1. Beautiful bokeh but unbalanced composition and poor image quality. -- Alvesgaspar 08:12, 9 May 2008 (UTC)
•  Support Am I the only one who first looks at the flower, then at the darkish corner? Freedom to share 15:42, 9 May 2008 (UTC)
•  Support Beautiful. I think it is the property of bokeh, not noise. --Lerdsuwa 17:55, 9 May 2008 (UTC)
•  Support ! --Calibas 01:24, 10 May 2008 (UTC)
•  Support Great composition, beautiful color, excellent detail on the tulip. Great work. --JaGa 07:41, 10 May 2008 (UTC)
•  Oppose Interesting composition, but nothing wow or high value for FP. --Beyond silence 15:53, 11 May 2008 (UTC)
•  Oppose As Beyond silence. --Karelj 18:37, 12 May 2008 (UTC)
•  Oppose What Beyond silence said, plus what article would the picture illustrate? Don't get me wrong, I love the colors and congratulate the author with a wonderful capture. I simply think it does not fit FP criteria, that's it. Barabas 23:06, 12 May 2008 (UTC)

Well you think it doesn't meet the FP criteria but why don't you just read the FP criteria then you know for sure? Encyclopedic value or the usage of a picture in an article is not relevant here. --AngMoKio 06:41, 13 May 2008 (UTC)

•  Neutral I like the idea but the space on the left is a bit too big for me. I would prefer a slightly tighter crop. --AngMoKio 06:41, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
  • I chose this crop because it maximized the visual space. Anyone can crop for their own purposes, but you can't add back what isn't there. I'd be happy to do it if your vote made the different between a FP and not (which it is as I write this), but it would require a new voting period. So if this fails, perhaps I'll try a cropped version later, but no one will notice it way down here I think. -- Ram-Man 01:04, 14 May 2008 (UTC)

•  Support "wallpapered" -- User:Canislupusarctos18:08, 15 May 2008 (UTC)

  Good idea! It's my wallpaper now too. --Calibas 23:00, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
