  • Comment -wouldn't it be better if we could see the eintire stall -Nelro —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 65.94.134.65 (talk)
  • Weak Support I agree with Nelro, it does not depict its subject very well. Still, it is a good picture and is encyclopedic enough to suit its purpose. Jellocube27 22:52, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Oppose Composition, Artifacts. -Fcb981 00:22, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Oppose - Composition is wrong for a crab picture, and wrong for a seafood market picture. —dgiestc 20:09, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Oppose Composition, jagged edges. Lycaon 08:31, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Weak oppose for not being soft shell... but.... I think the illustration of a crab should be clearer... this is hard to tell where one crab ends and the other crabs. gren グレン 13:36, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Support -- very illustrative of how crabs are sold in a market. howcheng {chat} 03:21, 7 March 2007 (UTC)

  • Support -- good photo to show crabs as a food product.--Eloquence* 21:21, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Support per howcheng --frothT 22:05, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Oppose Cropping kills context. ~ trialsanderrors 21:40, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Support I can't oppose this picture because nature made this crabs' shells kind of confusing. Also, this picture it's quite attracting and reminds me of a Costa Rican fish market (that may be my personal opinion, but the point is the picture is good). Also, even if I had never seen a crab in my life, the one on top is quite distinguishable and accurately depicts what a blue crab looks like, so I have to say this picture is encyclopedic.Bernalj90 03:15, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
