Oh, ok. I just thought the wow factor was important in this one. It was pretty impressive for me anyways.--Canislupusarctos 03:22, 6 October 2007 (UTC)

•  Support I believe that the resolution is good enough to depict the subject and theme of the picture and does not detract from it in general. It is an action shot, which means that the detail is not as important as the moment. Remember that, 'A bad picture of a very difficult subject is a better picture than a good picture of an ordinary subject'. (Featured Picture Candidates Guidelines) I feel that this shot meets and exceeds the criteria on subject and content. Freedom to share 11:56, 6 October 2007 (UTC)
  •  Comment Sorry, I see my mistake now. I thought that the shot illustrated the exact moment of the rat's capture rather than a dead rat in the mousetrap. It looked at first as if the moment of the trap closing was captured. I apologize for this misunderstanding and the mess that it might have caused. Freedom to share 20:52, 8 October 2007 (UTC)
•  Oppose Far too small, no mitigating circumstances, not illegible. Lycaon 12:24, 6 October 2007 (UTC)
•  Oppose I see no action in the shot only a half-dead rat.--Mbz1 12:59, 6 October 2007 (UTC)
•  Oppose Too small and this isn't a difficult enough subject to justify waiving the size requirement. Calibas 19:37, 6 October 2007 (UTC)
•  Oppose Too noisy. Tail on white painted area while the body is on the wood does not arouse me aesthetically. Harris Morgan 22:30, 6 October 2007 (UTC).
•  Oppose If such a shot is available to you again it would be great to have one with more wow, and better lighting, i.e not birds-eye-view. --Ben^hello! 05:25, 7 October 2007 (UTC)
•  Oppose Interesting, but not enough mitigating reasons. Many mice die trapped, so it is not such a very difficult subject to capture. --Javier ME 18:13, 7 October 2007 (UTC)
•  Oppose As above, and I don't care much for the lighting. --Digon3 ^talk 21:34, 7 October 2007 (UTC)
