  • Support - Really like this one. Wildlife photographs that include a background of their habitat are more appealing to the eye and have a greater EV value as far as I'm concerned. MatGTAM (talk) 01:52, 27 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment They look kind of weird at full resolution. Is that accurate? I mean, maybe it's an effect of the oils on their feathers or iridescence or something, but it looks odd. Adam Cuerden (talk) 04:53, 28 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
