•  Comment The {{Retouched}} template is missing. Manipulations such as this must be mentioned in the image description: see the guidelines above under the section "Digital manipulations". --MichaelMaggs (talk) 20:16, 20 May 2009 (UTC)

There is no image manipulation whatsoever, this is exactly ther result that came out of the camera. --Spock lone wolf (talk) 20:55, 20 May 2009 (UTC)

There is no reason not to describe changes made to the photo, there is no "it's cheating" philosophy about image manipulation, we just ask that it is declared. eg File:Biandintz eta zaldiak - modified2.jpg that might get "Picture of the year 2008" is heavily edited. The background to this image looks processed - distinct horizontal and vertical and other geometric patterns. This can also be seen in the left half of the sky in File:Brno Královo Pole SSZ.jpg, sort of coalesced noise :-). I'm not sure whether this is from stitching or blurring, but I can't see it in any of the images in Category:Taken with Canon EOS 30D --Tony Wills (talk) 11:46, 26 May 2009 (UTC)

•  Neutral I really like the colors and compostion, but there's so much blur in what appears to be the focal plane of the flower that it's distracting.Downtowngal (talk) 21:37, 20 May 2009 (UTC)
•  Support Don't find the blur distracting. This is gorgeous. Maedin\^talk 20:00, 26 May 2009 (UTC)
