Thank you for nominating this image. Unfortunately, it does not fall within the Guidelines and is unlikely to succeed for the following reason: Quality stunted by aforementioned lighting problems

Anyone other than the nominator who disagrees may override this template by changing {{FPX}} to {{FPX contested}} and adding a vote in support. Voting will then continue in the usual way. If not contested within 24 hours, this nomination may be closed.

•  Oppose Good quality? Not on this side of the world ;-). Lycaon 01:39, 8 January 2008 (UTC)
•  Oppose The edit is much better than the original version, but there are still reflections of the artificial flash light visible on the tongue. Also, the flash creates harsh shadows behind the blades of grass. Not featured picture quality IMHO. Chmehl 07:24, 8 January 2008 (UTC)
•  Oppose Given the difficulties to approach these young seals, we could expect much better pictures. Honestly, I prefer this old one of mines even of low quality because it shows natural behaviour (yes seals fear water the first time !) and not just reaction to the photograph --B.navez 18:47, 8 January 2008 (UTC)
•  Support Nice detail. --Karelj 14:09, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
•  Oppose I agree with B.navez -- Gorgo 18:57, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
•  Comment I wouldn't do a dogged evaluation onto this :-) Surely its not really enc. but Commons is not only for enc pics. This is a very funny picture and has a big room for associativity e.g. one funny comment on ICQ was that maybe this seal could have a drug problem because of his nosedrills a.s.o. Relax and dont be stiff  :-) --Richard Bartz 20:34, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
•  Oppose Not a bad quality as Lycaon, but composition not good.

Sorry, you should try Commons:Quality images candidates first! --Beyond silence 03:51, 12 January 2008 (UTC)

•  Support I like it --Orlovic (talk) 13:44, 13 January 2008 (UTC)
•  Oppose The foreground lighting is not balanced with the background. Looks like flash was used on this outdoor, daytime shot. -- Ram-Man 02:24, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
•  Support, good sharpeness, interesting. --Aqwis 17:26, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
