;Reason:jjron suggested that this might be a worthy competitor to the [[Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/File:Egretta novaehollandiae Tasmania 3.jpg|currently nominated]] [[:File:Egretta novaehollandiae Tasmania 3.jpg|Egretta novaehollandiae Tasmania 3.jpg]], and I have to agree.

* '''Comment''' I'm not going to vote on this one since I'd probably get accused of COI or something. But jjron did also say "unfortunately the focus on that looks to have just missed". It is either out of focus or just very soft, not to mention noisy, I don't think it is close to the technical requirements. The background of this shot is clearer, particularly at thumbnail size, this is why I submitted it over my own image when I did a 5x expansion of the article for [[T:DYK/Q2|WP:DYK]]. But I still think the pair are complementary. [[User:Noodle snacks|Noodle snacks]] ([[User talk:Noodle snacks|talk]]) 08:45, 5 January 2009 (UTC)
*'''Weak Support''' Even if technical quality isn't perfect, I think the background is more pleasing and less distracting, making this image stand out to me more. [[User:Fletcher|Fletcher]] ([[User talk:Fletcher|talk]]) 23:37, 5 January 2009 (UTC)
*'''Weak Oppose'''. Sorry, I think it's an excellent picture, but the focus isn't right so doesn't meet FPC criteria. To me this is a perfect candidate for VPC rather than FPC and would support it if I saw it there. --[[User:Jjron|jjron]] ([[User talk:Jjron|talk]]) 13:57, 9 January 2009 (UTC)
*'''Regretful Oppose''' The loss of detail due to the soft focus is a problem, and the noise likewise. I would suggest [[WP:VPC]]. [[User:Elucidate|Elucidate]] ([[User talk:Elucidate|''light up'']]) 19:23, 9 January 2009 (UTC)
*'''[[Wikipedia:Valued picture candidates/White-faced Heron.jpg|Nominated]]''' at VPC. [[User:Noodle snacks|Noodle snacks]] ([[User talk:Noodle snacks|talk]]) 01:51, 10 January 2009 (UTC)
*'''Support''' I agree that this one is a better version. The bird stands out more and is much clearer to see. [[User:A302b|A302b]] ([[User talk:A302b|talk]]) 09:40, 10 January 2009 (UTC)
*'''Oppose''' I have better shots of this bird in sharp focus which I'll try upload soonish --[[User:Fir0002|Fir0002]] 01:18, 11 January 2009 (UTC)
