  • Weak oppose -- Nice, but too small. --TotoBaggins 15:18, 8 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose The size doesn't bother me as much as the clouds and somewhat strange perspective. While you can see the eclipse ok in full size even at the intermediate size the subject is poorly illistrated. -Fcb981 16:23, 8 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose. I see clouds, a bird, a TV antenna and ten pixels of sun. A telephotolens would fit the subject better. Sure, there is no drastic advantage in having a featureless white circle 900px in diameter rather then 10, that's why I don't think a picture like this of a solar eclipse is that stunning in the first place (as opposed to the actual event itself). --Dschwen 06:21, 30 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
