The picture is large, clear, sharp, and is very pleasing to the eyes. The picture looks unique and is of very high quality, and makes the Barred Owl article look very good. Along with the previous qualities, it is also infomative. It clearly allows viewers to see a Barred Owl, in a natural setting. The picture was created by Mdf.

It's a lovely picture, but it's a little smaller than the generally accepted standard for featured pictures (see WP:WIAFP). Maybe you could contact the uploader and see if he has a larger one that he would be willing to upload? Stephen Turner ( Talk) 21:02, 17 October 2006 (UTC)Oppose This is a wonderful photo, but the resolution just isn't high enough. If high-res version is uploaded, I'll change to support.-- Zantastik talk 22:11, 17 October 2006 (UTC) Change to Support of new, higher-res version.-- Zantastik talk 21:55, 18 October 2006 (UTC)Oppose.

Oppose. As has already been said, too small, but very nice.Diliff | (Talk) (Contribs) 10:59, 18 October 2006 (UTC)- Support. I'm still getting the small version when viewing it full sized, but even the preview image looks substantially better.

OpposeSupport The pic I get by clicking on the thumb is 800 px across which is fine. However the supposedly big one at 1536px across (which would be big enough) is actually 768 px across (which is not big enough). Is my browser (IE6) playing tricks? Weird! Something has happened in the half hour since I wrote that and now I get the 1536 pic - Adrian Pingstone 13:46, 18 October 2006 (UTC)- Support I'm getting it at full size (1536px) and it is a great picture! - Alvesgaspar 13:57, 18 October 2006 (UTC)
- Support now that we have a bigger one. Stephen Turner ( Talk) 14:19, 18 October 2006 (UTC)
- Comment I'm still just getting the smaller version. Tried clearing the page cache and reloading the photo page itself. If I get to see the higher res version then I'll support. Can someone verify that this has not reverted to the smaller version, or is it my browser? --

- Support I like the off-center composition, the muted background, and the focus is just in the right plane. -- Janke | Talk 16:53, 23 October 2006 (UTC)
- Support Edit 1 and Original I thought a crop can help since much of the space adds nothing to the subject. But still it doesn't make a big difference for me. Also changed the colors a bit -- Arad 00:03, 24 October 2006 (UTC)
- Support original, oppose edit 1' — I feel the cropping is excessive; the original shot is perfect as it is. ♠ SG →Talk 06:24, 24 October 2006 (UTC)

- Support original, oppose edit 1 – I like the use of the rule of thirds in the original; it brings a sense of lonliness, quietness, or wildness (as in free animal, not crazy) to the owl which the straight-on crop does not exude. The close crop is good for a scientific discussion of the species, but the original is better to demonstrate their -- character, for lack of a better word. — E ditor at Large (speak) 17:37, 25 October 2006 (UTC)
- Support original, oppose edit 1. The original strikes me as more intersting, compositionally. -- Zantastik talk 06:07, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
