- Oppose} -- It's a nice portrait, but nothing stunning. It might just by the Chinese style, but she looks too much like a statue. Howcheng 16:18, 18 May 2006 (UTC)
- Oppose -- Urban 03:06, 19 May 2006 (UTC)
- Too much like a statue? What do you want her to do, dance a jig? I don't understand this voting system, how does a grainy b&w photograph like Image:Stalin-Lenin-Kalinin-1919.jpg get votes, but this image not, how is this voting system based? Gryffindor 09:27, 19 May 2006 (UTC)
- What I meant by that was that the painting doesn't seem to capture the personality of the empress dowager. She's just sitting there, looking straight ahead at the artist with a blank look on her face. I don't know if that happens to be characteristic of paintings of Chinese monarchs or what, but it just doesn't grab me. (You'll also note that I opposed the Stalin-Lenin picture too).

But, these are not spider dropped on water, these are a kind of Water strider (called "Amenbo" in Japanese) that is a kind of an insect, walking on water by six legs is unique. And these are on a breeding season in Japan. --Cory
