•  Comment There are green halos and detail level is not really high Poco a poco (talk) 19:43, 7 February 2024 (UTC)

• I know it's not like your underwater set up! It's the subject... Charlesjsharp (talk) 20:37, 7 February 2024 (UTC)

•  Weak oppose It is very rare that I oppose one of your nominations but although this is an attractive, well-framed image, I am not convinced that the detail is sufficient for FP especially considering the large size of this species. If it were a smaller animal I'd probably support but for something 1m long maybe not. Regardless of whether this nomination passes I think there's some CA that you could possibly work on.

• No problem. I was using a run-of-the-mill underwater GoPro, so not my day job! Charlesjsharp (talk) 22:11, 8 February 2024 (UTC)

• Understood, was worth a try at FPC for sure Cmao20 (talk) 23:37, 8 February 2024 (UTC)

•  Oppose Center is fine, but borders not so. Maybe cell phone would make beter. --Mile (talk) 13:28, 10 February 2024 (UTC)

• I wasn't going to take it scuba diving... Charlesjsharp (talk) 19:29, 10 February 2024 (UTC)

•  Oppose per Mile's first sentence. Particularly on the left. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 16:43, 10 February 2024 (UTC)

 I withdraw my nomination As expected, but I like the animal. Charlesjsharp (talk) 19:29, 10 February 2024 (UTC)
