Coyote
Reason
Cut off, especially the ear. Cute rather than encyclopedic.

  • Keep Admittedly, the cut off ear is unfortunate, but the sharpness is excellent, and I doubt this kind of shot would be easily reproducable. --Schcamboaon scéal? 10:43, 17 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delist noisy background, subject cutoff in awkward manner. Matt Deres (talk) 14:27, 17 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Very difficult shot to reproduce (trust me, I am a photographer who takes quite a few animals pics). He had to have been using a huge zoom to get that close a shot without the coyote looking at him, and the sharpness is spot-on. Clegs (talk) 17:46, 17 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delist I'm certain that a better photo could be taken. crassic![talk] 17:54, 17 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. This is a high quality image, and must have been difficult to take. The crop is somewhat tight, but it does not detract too much from the image. NauticaShades 15:10, 18 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep despite the cut off ear it is still a high quality image and of course probably quite difficult to reproduce. Cat-five - talk 05:47, 19 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - the Van Gogh effect is unfortunate, but still a FP. ← κεηηε∂γ (shout at me) 09:19, 20 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - Cut-off is not an issue, high detail and enc value. — BRIAN0918 • 2008-05-20 18:22Z
  • Keep for now. Ideally, we should see the whole subject, but I don't see strong evidence for overthrowing the original decision. Anyway, enjoyed the humour @kennedy! Papa Lima Whiskey (talk) 13:00, 21 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delist cut-off of the ear is unacceptable for the highest accolade. Also the placement is less than ideal. Does not prevent it being considered a useful enc pic, which has valuable place in articles, until a complete head is available Motmit (talk) 19:45, 21 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep It's still a very good photo. Andrew18 @ 19:48, 21 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
