Charity shop window display

 * Reason:This is an example of the way a good charity shop can make fairly useless goods look attractive. This photo was not taken with a particularly good camera but it came out nicely, considering it is taken through glass. Even as a thumbnail it conveys the impression that there must be something to buy, somewhere in there, and you can see a lot of detail if you enlarge to 100%. The article had no image and I already had this. As far as I can remember it is not cropped or colour-adjusted in any way.

 * Oppose is certainly not Wikipedia's best work. Anyone can take this pic in a minute or two. EgraS (talk) 05:19, 5 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Oppose The shelf is very unorganized, it doesn't look like a window display, I can't even see the window. Rj1020 (talk) 12:22, 5 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Oppose per 8th star, and I can see reflections in the glass. Spencer  T♦C 13:48, 5 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Oppose Sorry just isn't featured picture status -- St.daniel Talk 14:15, 5 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment The picture is illustrative and encyclopedic but Featured pictures have to be top quality most of the time. Sorry Muhammad (talk) 14:44, 5 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Oppose per Janke. —αἰτίας •'discussion'• 23:29, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Oppose Colourful and fun and illustrates the topic, but more effort should have gone into posing it. Taken from that angle the shelf has a nasty tilt and too many items are cut in half. Taking the trouble to kneel or squat could have dealt with these issues and might have given an interesting aspect of cameras pointing at cameras. Motmit (talk) 12:22, 7 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Does this meet WP:SNOW yet? I'd think so.  crassic ![ talk ] 02:53, 8 April 2008 (UTC)
