Reason

Something a bit different, the background isn't pure white so the highlights on some of the faces are easily distinguished from the background

• Support: Very good and very interesting, with good detail and focus throughout. On a side (probably irrelevant) note, can the background be less "pink"? Perhaps something more neutral would not clash so much with the orange subject? Maedin\ ^talk 20:25, 12 February 2009 (UTC) reply

• Oppose Interesting formation but not convinced this is up to "studio" standards. I'm not 100% sold on the grey background but more significantly there is a lot of unpleasant texture in the (somewhat deep) shadow. If this can be fixed my vote changes to a weak support (not keen on the pale grey bg - it's a bit half hearted) -- Fir0002 07:47, 13 February 2009 (UTC) reply
  • I'm not sure of the spatial frequency you are really concerned about, so I just gave the shadow a bit of a blur etc. Noodle snacks ( talk) 08:48, 13 February 2009 (UTC) reply
