 * Oppose Good subject, but it's just too blurry at full resolution. -- Grandpafootsoldier (talk) 07:03, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Oppose. Focus plane is behind her on the wall. Also, flash lighting is really bad here. Lastly, the creator is not Flickr; it's Staff Sgt. Michael Kropiewnicki of the U.S. Marine Corps.  howcheng  {chat} 08:18, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Flickr do not create anything. Photographers post thier photographs in Flickr. So whoever is the photographer, the photograph is posted in Flickr.  Otolemur crassicaudatus  (talk) 08:33, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
 * The "creator" field in the FPC nomination is supposed to be the photographer (if the image is a photograph). I think that you guys are in agreement on this.  Oppose per above.  Spikebrennan (talk) 14:20, 18 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Oppose per other opposes. --Janke | Talk 09:00, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Oppose per above opposes. Lighting, bluriness and again, Flickr being the creator doesn't seem fit. Juliancolton (Talk) 13:36, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Moral support Great face, surprising subject. Could we get another version of this with a better background?  It's not like I'm predisposed toward the woman + beatdown factor (checks username, whistles innocently).  Durova Charge! 18:34, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
 * I don't think there's anything wrong with admitting that the picture is more interesting because it's a woman.. I doubt those glamour shots from awhile back would have gotten so many votes if it was a man (checks genitals, whistles innocently). D\=&lt; (talk) 07:01, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Hilarious answer. :) Really, though, I wish we did have more FPs of women doing active things such as sports, etc.  Durova Charge! 16:46, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
 * I wish we had more FPs of women doing anything at all. In a quick survey of past FPs, I see 102 of men/boys, 30 of women/girls, 19 with both men and women, and 6 undeterminable (but based on what they're doing, probably men). Calliopejen1 (talk) 17:41, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Oppose The background is cluttered and the flash lightning is harsh. Cacophony (talk) 05:27, 20 February 2008 (UTC)
