•  Info I feel a bit like a caveman submitting this image, compared with all these amazing and elevated church interiors... but I hope you will appreciate the intensity of the situation and the natural behaviour. I have cropped a third of the image, to the right, it was a tad too gory. All by me -- Arturo de Frias Marques (talk) 07:43, 20 September 2014 (UTC)

•  Support And it is nice to have it bigger. :) Jee 08:10, 20 September 2014 (UTC)
•  Oppose How many times?. --Yikrazuul (talk) 16:20, 20 September 2014 (UTC)
•  Info This image is 50% bigger (3000px vs 2000px) than the initial submission. When I submitted the initial one I was not aware that max res is a key factor for FP candidates.

•  Oppose I found the crop too tight on the initial nomination, and it’s even tighter here. What’s the croc eating? --Kreuzschnabel 05:24, 22 September 2014 (UTC)

• Hi Kreuz, as Jee shows, the croc is eating a dead wildebeest. I have cropped it as it is because to the right there is only a piece of fairly slimy skin, and more dead body... it adds nothing in my view. However, I am happy to upload a new version, with a less tight crop, and see if it works better... --Arturo de Frias Marques (talk)
• I have now uploaded a new image, less tight crop (hence image larger). Also took the opportunity and worked a little bit on the curves, the image is now brighter. If previous supporters think it was better before, let me know and I will revert to original --Arturo de Frias Marques (talk)

•  Oppose I agree with Kreuz: it is difficult to imagine what's happening in the scene. Moreover, the crocodile is not clearly visible. --Ruthven (talk) 21:35, 28 September 2014 (UTC)
