- Comment At first I thought it was some prop from Game of Thrones... Anyway, the Exif doesn't contain any data about the camera and it has the size at 5,472 x 3,648 px while the uploaded photo is 3,000 x 2,171 px. So the eternal question is: Do we feature something that is probably downsized or do we wait for the original file? --Cart (talk) 20:09, 27 September 2018 (UTC)
- Good point, Cart. Also, it would be good to know what the magnification is. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 20:10, 27 September 2018 (UTC)
- Comment I would think that if the image is within the size parameters it does not matter if it was downsampled. --Tomascastelazo (talk) 03:09, 28 September 2018 (UTC)
- I think it's a deserving candidate, but a science shot should include magnification, and downsampling is a bad practice. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 07:23, 28 September 2018 (UTC)

- Support It's a great image and since I see now that the downsizing issue apparently is relative, I'll support it too. I am a bit surprised though to find people who have previously said that downsized photos are no-go, supporting this. I would prefer it not being downsized, but if it's ok with the community, who am I to argue. --Cart (talk) 10:52, 28 September 2018 (UTC)
