• Strong Oppose what is this? Poor quality, not to mention it is way too snapshotty. It isn't even of a particular subject. All-around not FP quality. Juliancolton ^{The storm still blows...} 22:38, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

River pollution? That is not an FP worthy subject. And above all, the technical quality isn't good. Juliancolton ^{The storm still blows...} 22:47, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

River pollution is not FP worthy? You are saying only a nice image of a river will be FP worthy, not the negative aspect like pollution? Otolemur crassicaudatus (talk) 22:51, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

Not rive pollution as a whole, but just the way this image illustrates it. Juliancolton ^{The storm still blows...} 23:32, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

• Oppose River pollution is a fine subject for FP, but this particular photo is not FP quality. Not the best composition and there's all sorts of weird chromatic aberration and other things that seem strange-looking but I don't know the technical names for.

It shows sulms adjoining river. Otolemur crassicaudatus (talk) 23:06, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

• Oppose due to poor focus and lighting. Highly reproducible shots like this should be much higher quality/resolution. Cacophony (talk) 05:33, 20 February 2008 (UTC)
• Oppose technically really poor/nothing for FP. —αἰτίας •discussion• 22:37, 20 February 2008 (UTC)
