• Oppose Overexposed. Jó Kritika (talk) 18:43, 9 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Well, it's a light-coloured bird against a bright background. I think the exposure is fine since there's no clipping. The black point may be microscopically off though.

    • The parrot isn't over exposed, it is just a light background (overcast sky filtering through eucalyptus leaves) JJ Harrison (talk) 23:46, 9 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

It's still too bright. The branch is overexposed, but perhaps just a slight decrease in brightness would make me change my mind (even though I don't favor the "stay-away-from-me" posture of the bird). Jó Kritika (talk) 01:53, 12 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

No it isn't (overexposed). It is a dead eucalypt branch (1, 2 etc). I've posted an edit, burning the branch, but it'd be an edit for aesthetics, not accuracy, if anything. JJ Harrison (talk) 10:08, 12 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

• Support Either. EV is sufficient, and I'm not seeing the supposed overexposure. NauticaShades 17:36, 15 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

• I'd prefer the original... — raekyt 01:41, 19 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
• Original, but I'm not that fussed. I'd gather Jó Kritika would prefer the alt (but not really support it). JJ Harrison (talk) 10:52, 19 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
• Original, but there's not much in it. J Milburn (talk) 11:51, 19 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
• Original, I don't know why the branch should be brighter; it's about the bird.--
