Ansellia africana edit

List of Orchidaceae genera is packed with excellent illustrations of orchids, such as this striking Ansellia africana. Many of them come from Larsen Twins Orchids. In this case, the picture could be larger, but isotherwise very good. It also illustrates Ansellia. -- Solipsist 05:53, 24 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Nominate and support. - Solipsist 05:53, 24 July 2005 (UTC
I won't be supporting this one because the focus is very slightly off on the entire flower. That's a shame because otherwise it's a lovely pic - Adrian Pingstone 08:20, 24 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]
A little grainy, perhaps a blur? Enochlau 11:23, 25 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose. Just looks a little grainy. Doesn't really stand out to me. --ScottyBoy900Q∞ 20:25, 27 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Support I think its pretty, ~~although I will (reluctantly) concede a point that the picture looks a little blurred. Perhaps someone could touch it up?~~ TomStar81 20:34, 27 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Support - I've re-uploaded a larger and slightly sharpened version. I'm glad that someone discovered the photographic treasures in the List of Orchidaceae genera. It took me a lot of work to compile this list of genera in the largest family of the plant kingdom. But it gave me great pleasure to upload all this magnificent images (thanks to the kindness of the Larsen twins orchid page, who graciously gave all their images in the public domain).

( − ) Oppose Agree with ScottyBoy900Q, the sharpening brings out white lines and doesn't really work. --Fir0002 09:27, August 3, 2005 (UTC)
