Oppose.A lovely image. Sadly it doesn't (yet?) do a great job of illustrating the article, as it's stuck at the bottom of it without any context or explanation. L upin 02:26, 14 July 2005 (UTC)- It does offer some explanation: 'Stamens of
Amaryllis'. I think that since this image focuses primarily on the
stamens instead of an entire flower, the article would benefit having this as the lead image instead of
Image:Crateva religiosa.jpg. What do you think?

- I think the current lead image does a better job of visually explaining what stamens are. A macro shot like this is potentially ambiguous as it doesn't show how the stamens relate to the rest of the flower.

- Well I've moved the picture up, because although Lupin's point about showing the relation to the plant is a good one, I think the Amaryllis picture gives a much better idea of which bit of the plant the page is talking about. Also, the page is a redirect for anther, and the Amaryllis shows those clearly. Arguably the SEM picture is not as useful though. -- Solipsist 12:15, 16 July 2005 (UTC)

- Isn't this already a featured picture? It has a tag at the bottom of its image page saying it's a featured picture. Senatedems 23:58, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

- Oppose. Way too much white - the dark top makes it look a little top heavy. Also top left stamen is out of focus. Enochlau 11:07, 17 July 2005 (UTC)
- Oppose, but : If the focusing is better, I may support. But it's a very detailed picture. — Stevey7788 ( talk) 20:59, 20 July 2005 (UTC)

- Oppose. The pollen on the anthers looks quite old. it would be a better and useful picture if the anthers were in the process of dehiscence with fresh pollen. David D. 18:08, 27 July 2005 (UTC)
