    • It was a levels and sharpen (look at peer review), its in the retouched tag now. Noodle snacks (talk) 00:40, 23 January 2009 (UTC)
• Weak Oppose - The background really gets to me. It's both distracting and sometimes difficult to discern from the flower. I would support this as a VP though. ~ ωαdεstεr16_«talk^stalk» 22:03, 25 January 2009 (UTC)
• Comment Seems a bit darkly-lit. Maybe a levels adjustment would help pull this up to FP quality? Shoemaker's Holiday (talk) 04:30, 4 February 2009 (UTC)
  • The original (edited version) had a levels adjustment done --Muhammad(talk) 05:18, 4 February 2009 (UTC)
• Regretful oppose bright section at upper right throws off the levels. Otherwise excellent. Durova^Charge! 05:20, 4 February 2009 (UTC)
• Question Is the stalk really that bare or are the stumps on it the remnants of leaves? --Fir0002 08:50, 4 February 2009 (UTC)
  • When the flowers begins to bloom, there are several of them together in clusters. Most of the flowers fall down before complete maturity. The stumps are remnants of flowers. --Muhammad(talk) 09:37, 4 February 2009 (UTC)
