•  Support It's super easy to identify technical flaws - by ordinary standards. These don't apply here, imo. This is an underwater shot after all, showing a ray in its natural habitat in a most impressive way. In short: the wow is very mitigating ;-) --Martin Falbisoner (talk) 11:42, 30 June 2017 (UTC)
•  Support Albertus teolog (talk) 13:23, 30 June 2017 (UTC)

•  Neutral The lack of sharpness is too much for me to actively support it, but I wanted to register that I love the composition. Big wow factor. --Peulle (talk) 22:07, 30 June 2017 (UTC)
•  Oppose exactly the contrary of Martin Falbisoner, sorry. --Jebulon (talk) 22:20, 30 June 2017 (UTC)
•  Support Christian Ferrer ^(talk) 05:26, 1 July 2017 (UTC)
•  Oppose Sharpness, crop too tight on the right side and above it needs more crop. --Hockei (talk) 06:32, 1 July 2017 (UTC)

•  Support Per Martin. Underwater shots should probably have different quality standards compared to the usual shots. -- Pofka (talk) 10:41, 2 July 2017 (UTC)
•  Support despite the red cross on the tail :) - Benh (talk) 16:34, 2 July 2017 (UTC)
•  Support - When I realize I'm rooting for a file to be promoted, that's time to vote for it. Excellent camouflage by the ray, yet it is quite clear enough to see. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 17:37, 2 July 2017 (UTC)
