 * Support as nominator --Muhammad (talk) 16:39, 27 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Support edit A good action shot, but a little underexposed in my view (hence the edit). A new telephoto I see? Did you manage to get a Wikimedia CH grant for it? JJ Harrison (talk) 08:37, 28 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Yeah I finally got a good telephoto lens thanks to Wiki CH. Best glass I have held :) --Muhammad (talk) 11:06, 28 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Just out of pure curiosity, may I please ask, what lens is it exactly? (air)Wolf (talk) 17:35, 28 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Canon EF 100-400mm lens --Muhammad (talk) 18:04, 28 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Support indifferent to brightness. Original looks OK to me.   Pine (was GreenPine)  talk 09:04, 28 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Support Original - The increased brightness makes the bottom of edit 1 look a bit off. I think the original is clear enough as it is. Anoldtreeok (talk) 15:03, 29 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Support Original I do not like the increased brightness...it makes the grass look strange. The original looks great to me! - Running On Brains (talk) 16:34, 1 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Comment Uploaded edit 2 which has a gradient mask on edit1 such that the original light of leaves in maintained whilst the rest of the image is slightly brighter. I think this addresses both concerns --Muhammad (talk)  11:15, 2 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Support edit 2 It looks better.  ■ MMXX  talk  14:05, 2 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Comment Either the original or edit 2 is OK, but I prefer the original. If someone wants the image brighter, they can increase the brightness of their computer monitor.   Pine (was GreenPine)  talk 08:34, 3 August 2011 (UTC)
 * No - we should make sure it looks right for this standard, which proscribes image brightness. This is because you'd expect viewer devices to center around this standard and so anyone with a calibrated display device and environment would see the same thing.

 * JJ, what do you think about edit2? --Muhammad (talk) 02:46, 4 August 2011 (UTC)
 * No strong feelings vs edit 1 and prefer it over the original. JJ Harrison (talk) 05:32, 4 August 2011 (UTC)
