Support. A lovely mushroom, and a great picture. I've been meaning to expand that article for a while. I'll do it this afternoon. J Milburn (talk) 11:53, 7 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Notwithstanding everyone's excitement about mushrooms, the composition and lighting don't impress me at all. Just a fairly standard image that almost every article has several of. Papa Lima Whiskey (talk) 22:46, 7 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose per PLW. Much brighter background is distracting. The image is not that impressive compared to other mushroom pics. Calliopejen1 (talk) 14:11, 10 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose No sense of scale at all on this photo. —Goodtimber (walk/talk) 20:08, 11 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Weak support Kind of snap-shotty, but good detail on the fungus I guess. A blurred out background would draw more attention to the subject. --I'ḏ ♥One 15:27, 14 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
