Original – Moss campion (Silene acaulis) and its habitat on the Norwegian arctic island of Svalbard
Reason
Meets the high technical standard, and is hi-res. Great composition, subtle lighting. Captures well the habitat that the plant grows in. Beautiful image.

    I like the composition a lot, honestly. It's the camera quality that's holding it back. Everything's just a bit out of focus and it's not so big of an image that that's forgivable. Adam Cuerden (talk)Has about 8.2% of all FPs 13:30, 5 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    I agree with Adam here. I found this really eye-catching at thumbnail size, to the point that I am commenting although usually the photos of pretty flars here just bore me. But at full resolution it's obvious that there's some sharpness missing. —David Eppstein (talk) 01:04, 6 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
