Created by Fir0002; showing a pair of two lemons. I think it shows great detail toward the lemon because its very close up.

  • They look sappy. But i am not sure if I support. So Neutral.
  • Support. Good detail. Alr 15:59, 28 January 2006 (UTC)
  • Support. However, does anyone agree that it might be best to crop out the leftmost lemon (partially visible) which is in focus? --Dante Alighieri | Talk 17:52, 28 January 2006 (UTC)
    • Either way would probably look great; it doesn't bother me right now, and cropping the side would require cropping the other side to keep the image centered on the two lemons. Support —Cuiviénen (Cuivië) 20:52, 28 January 2006 (UTC)
  • Support - nice. --Thorpe | talk 18:44, 28 January 2006 (UTC)
  • Oppose annoying composition, the fact that the lemon on the upper left side is in focus bothers me and distracts from the lemons in the centre. chowells 14:16, 29 January 2006 (UTC)
  • Oppose. I like the lemons, but I hate the background. Too busy - and are those weeds on the bottom left? enochlau (talk) 14:20, 29 January 2006 (UTC)
  • Oppose ditto enochlau. A good pic for the encyclopedia, but not for FP. And we already have a lemon . ~ Veledan • Talk 15:07, 29 January 2006 (UTC)
    • Technically, that's a lime. KILO-LIMA 21:14, 29 January 2006 (UTC)
      • No, it is a lemon, only unripe. Try reading the word-thingies near and heading the image. ~ Veledan • Talk 21:23, 29 January 2006 (UTC)
  • Oppose, seems to be in the shadow, good but not great colors -- Chris 73 | Talk 15:14, 29 January 2006 (UTC)
  • Oppose. Fir has uploaded some great pictures - those I will support, but this is not one of them - not stunning in any way. --Janke | Talk 21:21, 29 January 2006 (UTC)
  • Oppose An OK pic but not Featured material - Adrian Pingstone 22:02, 29 January 2006 (UTC)
  • Support, IIRC we've got a similar image of peaches featured. And stunning isn't the only thing an FPC can be judged on. I've seen several unremarkable pics make featured status simply for being a good pic of a common subject. I find the background a good thing. We can't have them hanging of a branch with no background at all. - Mgm|(talk) 10:31, 30 January 2006 (UTC)
  • Oppose unbalanced composition, bucket in the background. --Dschwen 17:32, 30 January 2006 (UTC)
  • Oppose. Nice but not exceptional. Camerafiend 19:11, 31 January 2006 (UTC)
  • Oppose I feel this image just does not have what other FPs do. I do like the green background though.--Ali K 13:13, 1 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment. I've decided to "Be Bold" and crop out the left side... what do people think now? (P.S. That's not a "bucket" on the right side, it's a plant growing in a container) --Dante Alighieri | Talk 18:34, 2 February 2006 (UTC)
    • I do prefer the composition of your crop and it's a very good illustration of lemons but I still wouldn't support for FP. ~ Veledan • Talk 17:39, 3 February 2006 (UTC)
    • I still find it somewhat distracting unfortunately. chowells 22:52, 3 February 2006 (UTC)
