It's the only non-free image. æ²  ✆ 2006-06-19t02:13z


 * I think it probably is free; it looks like {PD-old} to me. Anyway, that is not the answer I'm looking for. -- Eugène van der Pijll 16:16, 19 June 2006 (UTC)

They are are JPEGs, but four are ".jpg" and only Image:Tilia-cordata2.JPG is a ".JPG"?

Or Image:Kralj Tomislav.jpg is the only image for which fair use is asserted (all the rest are GFDL or {PD-old)? It is also the only one under 36KB. On the other hand, Image:Lord Kelvin photograph.jpg is the only one over 84KB. -- ALoan (Talk) 10:32, 20 June 2006 (UTC)


 * ''Also, Image:Lord Kelvin photograph.jpg is the only one in black and white; Image:GentianaAcaulisRannoch.jpg is the only one that could have been on commons, but isn't; Image:Kralj Tomislav.jpg is the only one that is included in just one Wikipedia article. But these reasons are not nearly unique; there are thousands of pictures that satisfy these conditions.
 * ''There is a specific connection between four of the five (and a few others; e.g. I could have mentioned Image:BlankMap-Europe-v3.png as well), and there is also a specific reason why I chose the fifth one as "odd one out". Eugène van der Pijll 16:56, 20 June 2006 (UTC)

Answer
Lord Kelvin, he is the only one in black and white. Josen 20:46, 23 June 2006 (UTC)


 * No, that's a little bit too obvious.
 * Hint: The answer is not about these images, but more about their subjects. Eugène van der Pijll 21:35, 23 June 2006 (UTC)

Image:Neman river.jpg
All of the other images' subjects are living beings — people or plants; this one's of a river. æ²  ✆ 2006-06-24t14:43z


 * ''No. Still too obvious, and it does not explain why I've chosen exactly these objects for this question.
 * Hint: The answer is about depictions of the subjects of these images (but not about these images themselves). Eugène van der Pijll 22:12, 27 June 2006 (UTC)

Currency
They have all been pictured on European currency:

A picture of the statue of King Tomislav was on the Croation 1000 kuna banknote.

Lord Kelvin was featured on the Clydesdale Bank £100 notes in Scotland.

Gentiana Acaulis is on the Austrian 1 cent euro coins.

The Nemen (Nemunas) river features on the Lithuanian 500 lita note

The Romanian 500 lei note has a picture of a Tilia, (not sure if it’s a Tilia Cordata though). Also, is that a linden tree in the background of the Czechoslovakian 20 koruna banknote?

 * ''Yes, but which one is the odd one out? -- Eugène van der Pijll 13:04, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Oh. Er... The Gentiana Acaulis is on a coin rather than a note so is it that one? --Spondoolicks 13:47, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
 * ''In fact, all of them are on the highest value bank note in the country, excpet for the gentian, which is on the lowest value coin. Eugène van der Pijll 15:37, 28 June 2006 (UTC)

.

Lord Kelvin, he is in black and white. --Photo22 23:56, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
