 * Subject: I love boldness and contrast of the yellow/blue/ and red and the moon looks really cool. This picture appears in Iowa and Ames, Iowa, I belive it really conveys a feeling of the place.
 * Support Votes:
 * reason - user
 * Oppose Votes:
 * weak oppose: I think someone who'd never seen a hay bail before might be misled. But then if this photo illustrated that it wouldnt be as cool would it? --Henry A-W 10:12, 6 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Oppose. Definitely a good composition (great colors and angle), but the picture itself isn't very sharp and the sky is really grainy. I would support it if it were the same picture of a higher quality. -- Tewy  03:25, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
 * This is the highest rez available. -Ravedave 05:05, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
 * [[Image:Symbol oppose vote.svg|15px]] Oppose I love the "feel" of the pic, but unfortunately the quality isn't the best. --Fir0002 09:58, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
 * And isnt there already an image of bales of hay, an image self-nominated by you. Should there be two of the same subject? -- AJ24 03:56, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Nothing wrong with multiples of the same subject, although as per my vote, I don't think that THIS is the right one to "add" to our existing shot. --Dante Alighieri | Talk 16:36, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Oppose. I don't think that this is the right representation of 'bales of hay'... also, I don't really like the framing of the shot. --Dante Alighieri | Talk 17:45, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Oppose. I don't think the photo is an encyclopedic illustration of any of the articles to which it is attached. SteveHopson 15:51, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Neutral/Questions:
 * lovely composition, but I wonder if it illustrates its subject really well.--K.C. Tang 00:22, 6 August 2006 (UTC)
