Python Swallowing a Deer

 * Reason:This is a graphic, shocking, unique and impressive image that is the best and only example of Predation by a Python in Wikipedia. See the deer's hoof for scale. It has good technical standard and resolution with no manipulation (990 × 695 pixels, file size: 907 KB, MIME type: image/jpeg), accurate and succinct caption and a Creative Commons Attribution 2.0 license. It adds value and understanding to each article it illustrates.

 * Comment Sorry, this doesn't meet the minimum size criteria (1000px on the long axis).  upstate NYer  21:37, 11 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Oppose Per what Noodle snacks said of the image at WP:PPR, copied and pasted below; Nezzadar   [SPEAK]  00:09, 12 November 2009 (UTC)
 * I don't think it'd pass on the basis of borderline resolution and image quality. Also there is a lot of stuff in the way and we can't see most of the python or the deer. Noodle snacks (talk) 08:30, 7 November 2009 (UTC)


 * Oppose Per Nezzadar's copy-pasta of myself. Noodle snacks (talk) 01:20, 12 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Twenty awesome points for Noodle snacks for gratuitous use of pasta... Nezzadar   [SPEAK]  17:21, 12 November 2009 (UTC)


 * Oppose. Not for the 10 pixels missed by NYer, but for the obstruction of the subject(s) by the branches. However I understand the photographer did not dare to get closer, or take the obstructions away! I think it would have a good chance to meet WP:VPICS. Elekhh (talk) 20:45, 14 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Oppose You have to spend too much time looking at the image to actually figure out what is going on. It is indeed shocking. But, it's confusing, and I do not feel it adds value to the article. NoFlyingCars (talk) 21:41, 16 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Oppose Does not meet size requirements and doesn't show the subject well -- ZeWrestler  Talk 01:17, 18 November 2009 (UTC)
