[edit] Budgerigar-Female-Benno
Photo taken of Benno, the female budgerigar by my friend, Craig Patten. This is Craig's partner's pet budgie. I have met it on several occasions and it and it is a dear thing. But more to the point, I am surprised and impressed by the excellent quality and composition of this picture. I don't know anything about photography and Craig is not a professional photographer either but the photo surpasses an amateur.

- Oppose Sorry, this isn't FP stuff - mostly out of focus, bad lighting & background, tail cut off...--Janke | Talk 14:16, 14 March 2006 (UTC)
- Oppose I don't agree with Janke, the background is pleasantly neutral and the lighting is pleasingly gentle. However, sadly, the off-centre placement and the blurred tail end irritates me - Adrian Pingstone 15:51, 14 March 2006 (UTC)
- Oppose. Too-shallow DoF and incomplete subject. In addition (and this is NOT why I voted Oppose, but only a side-note), it would be nice if any FP of a budgie could display wild-type plumage... or at least a more common domestic plumage. --Dante Alighieri | Talk 22:00, 14 March 2006 (UTC)
- Oppose I don't like how its off-centered, and only a portion of his tail is not visible. Alvinrune TALK 22:20, 14 March 2006 (UTC)
