•  Comment First of great picture! I am really sorry, if I am the only one with this problem, but I am unable to find the correct "perspective" on this. My eyes flicker back and forth trying make out a recognizable shape :) This is surely one heck of an optical illusion for me :D Stengaard (talk) 23:31, 25 April 2010 (UTC)

•  Oppose I feel like I have to go against the trend here and oppose. It's a nice enough image, and serves its purpose on w:Andradite wonderfully, but upon a closer look the background replacement looks crude, even sloppy, and the quality of the photo itself isn't that great. For a studio photo of an inanimate subject, I'd expect a bit more, especially given the many excellent (though, alas, mostly low resolution) images of Andradite we now have. —Ilmari Karonen (talk) 20:50, 29 April 2010 (UTC)
•  Comment The problems of background is never consensual. The scope for Andradite is full of excellent specimens, with pictures of very poor quality. --Archaeodontosaurus (talk) 08:19, 30 April 2010 (UTC)
•  Support What a perfect crystal! -- Ra'ike T C 15:21, 30 April 2010 (UTC)
