Support --Freedom to share 08:43, 2 April 2008 (UTC)Other version is better --Freedom to shareSupport --MichaelMaggs 08:47, 2 April 2008 (UTC)Now supporting version below. --MichaelMaggs 08:21, 4 April 2008 (UTC)Support..but isn't it a bit too dark? --AngMoKio 11:00, 2 April 2008 (UTC)- I actually prefer the more subdued nature of the shot. The white parts come out too white otherwise (not burned, just really white, too much contrast), see Richard's edit. --Dori - Talk 15:27, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
- Oppose .. much 2 dark.. Before nominating for FP please do your homework first ;-). As a unsolicited substitute for Lycaon i have to ask: Why is it more important to categorize this as "pictures by dori" then "Larus occidentalis" or "gull" or better "Laridae" ? it would be more easy to find this picture thereinafter and a propper categorization should be a basic prerequisite for a FP. Same with the image name IMO --Richard Bartz 15:35, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
- Richard, I shot this at -1/3 EV, I didn't want it to be too bright. Now you may disagree, but don't say I didn't do my homework. Regarding categories, it doesn't matter to me, my cat goes first as it's put in automatically by my script on all pictures I upload (so it's always there). Mentally it's easier for me to disregard it when I add other categories, if someone wants to rearrange them it's fine by me. --Dori - Talk 15:59, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
- Homework was related to categorization --Richard Bartz 16:02, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
- I had the right categories, I don't see how order is that important. Like I said my cat is first cause it's always present, the other categories are in the order that they come up to me, not in order of importance. What's more important anyway? How would you objectively differentiate between categories? I can come up with some counterargument on the importance of any order. --Dori - Talk 16:05, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
- I think i overlooked cat Larus occidentalis. :-)
- Oh, OK, sorry if I was a bit too defensive. I had to wake up early. --Dori - Talk 17:03, 2 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit]- Info created by --Dori - uploaded, edited & nominated by --Richard Bartz 15:38, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
- Overexposed part I see. --Beyond silence 15:48, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
- Support I prefer this one... In general it is really a very well composed portrait of a gull. --AngMoKio 17:19, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
- Support -- MJJR 21:02, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
- Oppose - Sorry, but thight crops are my pet hates. -- Alvesgaspar 23:34, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
- Support Solid portrait. Freedom to share 15:14, 3 April 2008 (UTC)
- Support --MichaelMaggs 08:22, 4 April 2008 (UTC)
- Support I prefer the darker one, but I'd be OK with this one too :) --Dori - Talk 16:59, 4 April 2008 (UTC)
- Support inspite of little problems with the colours: well composed, good portrait. --Mbdortmund 09:06, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
- Oppose Thight crop. Banangraut 13:45, 9 April 2008 (UTC)
- Hmm, no thighs in this picture or thights for that matter :) --Dori - Talk 18:31, 9 April 2008 (UTC)
- Oppose Per crop opposers. Lycaon 21:34, 9 April 2008 (UTC)
- Oppose Crop/composition otherwise a very nice picture --Richard Bartz 15:27, 11 April 2008 (UTC)
- Comment Would the crop opposers please look at the version below? That's all I can do without cloning, of course I also don't see the point of having more space than that since it's a portrait. --Dori - Talk 15:35, 11 April 2008 (UTC)
- portrait or passport photo ? --Richard Bartz 17:52, 11 April 2008 (UTC)
- Considering that passport photos need you to show more than half your face, your jab is rather off mark. --Dori - Talk 18:00, 11 April 2008 (UTC)
- Now that I think about it, this might be the first nomination I've seen that's been opposed by the nominator :) --Dori - Talk
- It's not over yet. We have the alternative. --Richard Bartz 11:31, 12 April 2008 (UTC)
- I mean why go to the trouble of nominating it if you didn't think it was FP material. Alternatively, if you changed your mind why not withdraw it? The oppose vote is just puzzling. --Dori - Talk 13:43, 12 April 2008 (UTC)
- A man can be helpful without to benefit from something. I did it for bringing the picture on a right way. Have a look on the picture below .. thére is a improvement ... what should have done before nominating the first version IMO ;-) --Richard Bartz 18:52, 12 April 2008 (UTC)

Opposeweird vignetting effect. Lycaon 19:25, 12 April 2008 (UTC)
- Are you talking about the top? That's not vignetting, it's the shore. I didn't want a squarish composition, so when I increased crop sideways I increased at the top too. --Dori - Talk 01:19, 15 April 2008 (UTC)
- Support You convinced me ;-). Lycaon 05:37, 16 April 2008 (UTC)
