Cacatua galerita


I think this image would be a suitable Featured or Valued Picture, because a close-up of a bird can be very difficult to get, the clarity, lighting and angle are quite good. The subject of the photo is also fairly good. (I've never submitted anything to the Picture peer review, also I have never requested any sort of recognition for my images, is this good enough quality?) —Preceding unsigned comment added by JamesDouch (talk • contribs) 07:51, 12 March 2010 (UTC)

 * Comments:
 * Its encyclopedic value is very limited, since it's only used in a gallery in the Sulphur-crested Cockatoo article, and the article already contains several high-quality pictures, meaning that there is no scope for making this picture more prominent. This would cause it to fail as a Featured Picture Candidate. This also causes the picture to fail criterion #1 of the Valued picture criteria. As for the picture itself, even if it were prominently located in an article, I don't think it would pass as a Featured Picture: the angle is a bit awkward, and the picture is underexposed. Saying all this, it is an interesting picture, and I like the quirky angle: it's just that it doesn't have what it takes to gain either FP or VP status.
