•  Info created by Frank Schulenburg – uploaded by Frank Schulenburg – nominated by Frank Schulenburg --Frank Schulenburg (talk) 03:09, 8 March 2012 (UTC)
•  Neutral as creator. --Frank Schulenburg (talk) 03:09, 8 March 2012 (UTC)
•  Oppose It's a nice photo, but I don't think the framing is optimal. Tomer T (talk) 10:51, 8 March 2012 (UTC)
•  Oppose --Katarighe (Talk) 16:45, 8 March 2012 (UTC)
•  QuestionHi Tomer and Katarighe, thanks a lot for your comments. Because this is the first time I've nominated a picture for featured status, I might need some help. Is there any way to improve the photo? What I like about this shot is the three-dimensionality and yet almost abstract way how the leaves fill the picture (and I don't mind the slight asymmetry) and also its stunning tonality. Is there a way to frame the current content differently? (e.g. through cropping) --Frank Schulenburg (talk) 17:45, 8 March 2012 (UTC)
  • I'm afraid that with the current content it won't be possible to frame it better. What I dislike about the framing is that all the leafs are cut-off, cropping can't change that. Regards, Tomer T (talk) 18:17, 8 March 2012 (UTC)

Alternative

•  Info I totally get your point. Fortunately, I took another picture in portrait orientation. What about this one? --Frank Schulenburg (talk) 19:28, 8 March 2012 (UTC)
• This one's better. I'm not sure it has enough 'wow' to be a FP. I'll wait for other voters to express their opinions. Tomer T (talk) 20:04, 8 March 2012 (UTC)
•  Support They both look like quality works of art yet are stunningly real. Saffron Blaze (talk) 23:30, 8 March 2012 (UTC)
