Diving Emperor Penguins


It is of good quality, the object as at the centre. It is in the public domain. It is an intriguing picture with a caption that provides interesting information (has a "wow I didn't know that") quality. There are not major obstructions to the subject, it's all in good focus aside from the snow background. One thought may be to lighten it slightly, I noticed it looks better slightly lighter in the lower resolution. It's full resolution is over 1,000 in both directions. New to the FPC thing but wanted to give it a crack. SGGH speak! 15:49, 30 May 2008 (UTC)

 * Comments:
 * The focus on the front is pretty good, but the tail seems to be out of focus. What you should try to do is darken the background a little, because for me, it's a little distracting. Elephantissimo (talk) 20:52, 1 June 2008 (UTC)
 * I'd give this one a go at FPC without any adjustments; dark snow is just, well, strange. But change the caption&mdash;it should describe the picture rather than be trivia about the subject. It's much better as on the image describtion page because the trivia is tied into the photo itself. Thegreenj 02:26, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
 * You mean I should use "A Emperor Penguin dives into the water somewhere in the Antarctic. Emperor Penguins can dive as deep as 550 meters, with 20 minutes of air in a single breath."? I shall give it a go. SGGH speak! 12:04, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
