•  Oppose Unappealing background and distracting yellow shape. The right border is gray and a bit awkward. Quality image but not up to FP for a somewhat easy subject, sorry -- Basile Morin (talk) 02:51, 20 March 2024 (UTC)

• Thank you for your comment. FYI: The background is the water in the ditch where the plant is overhanging. The yellow spot is a flower of the same plant that hangs a little further over the ditch. The right side is shaded by another plant.--Famberhorst (talk) 05:35, 20 March 2024 (UTC)

• Thanks for the explanation. Shade over the water seems unlikely, so probably the side of a blurred plant in the foreground? -- Basile Morin (talk) 05:50, 20 March 2024 (UTC)

•  Oppose I'm sorry but that big yellow blob in the background is just too distracting for me. The image quality is good but the background is somewhere short of outstanding Cmao20 (talk) 15:32, 20 March 2024 (UTC)
•  Oppose I concur with Cmao20 Poco a poco (talk) 19:43, 21 March 2024 (UTC)
•  Oppose This is definitely a high-quality image of the buds, so it is very much a QI, but I agree that the yellow blob makes it a sub-optimal composition. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 15:08, 22 March 2024 (UTC)
