•  Info A bud of an Indian Lotus (Nelumbo nucifera) seen against its leaf. Yes, there is already this FP with the same subject but I believe that the framing and light of this one is slightly better. All by Alvesgaspar (talk) 14:44, 10 September 2011 (UTC)
•  Support -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 14:44, 10 September 2011 (UTC)
•  Oppose IMO Boring centered composition --Muhammad (talk) 03:00, 11 September 2011 (UTC)
•  Support The composition centered, is precisely the interest of this image --Archaeodontosaurus (talk) 07:51, 11 September 2011 (UTC)
•  Support Tomer T (talk) 10:06, 11 September 2011 (UTC)
•  Support Per Archaeo. And I may say that it is not enough centered, IMO.--Jebulon (talk) 12:40, 11 September 2011 (UTC)
  • Indeed! I was advised, off record, to clone out the offending part. But I couldn't, it would be like cheating to me (an overreaction, of course). What I did instead was to make the unfortunate thing more discrete. Keeping it there is just a sign of rebellion against the tirany of (boring) symmetry! Does this last part sound like rethorics, Jebulon? Well, it is! -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 13:29, 11 September 2011 (UTC)
•  Support --David C. S. (talk) 17:22, 11 September 2011 (UTC)
•  Support Nice! -- Darius Baužys ^{→ talk} 19:50, 11 September 2011 (UTC)
•  Support -- Raghith 06:46, 12 September 2011 (UTC)
•  Oppose Sorry, no wow to me: The background is not sharp enough to me--Miguel Bugallo 17:40, 12 September 2011 (UTC)
•  Oppose Boring centered composition and color balance is unnatural IMO. Oversaturated green. -- George Chernilevsky ^talk 19:39, 13 September 2011 (UTC)
•  Support simple, effective, perfect. --Diligent (talk) 22:37, 14 September 2011 (UTC)
•  Oppose I like the idea but the centered composition is not perfect. The origin of the nerves of the leaf should have been completely hidden IMO. พ.s. 11:33, 15 September 2011 (UTC)
•  Oppose per ws. --99of9 (talk) 13:32, 15 September 2011 (UTC)

 I withdraw my nomination -- I can't satisfy neither Greeks nor Trojans: the composition is either boringly centered or not centered enough. Maybe I'll try later with a faked version. Alvesgaspar (talk) 11:33, 17 September 2011 (UTC)
