  • Oppose. Arm and shoulder on the right, some guy crouching in the background... Not the best composition. Sorry. J Milburn (talk) 20:34, 1 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose per J Milburn.   ■ MMXX  talk  21:00, 1 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose agree with J Milburn, and I'm not at all convinced that this adds significant EV to the article Baghdad Zoo. Pine (was GreenPine) talk 22:02, 1 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Sorry I also don't like the composition. There are 5 people in this photo, it would be much better if the 3 unimportant people weren't there. Aaadddaaammm (talk) 11:37, 6 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose An interesting story behind the photo, but the arm in the foreground ruins it for me at least. JJ Harrison (talk) 11:14, 10 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
