• Comment In case you missed this W.carter. I think there should be a gap between the two images and ideally the colours should be tweaked to look the same. Though I prefer the bottom image on its own. Charlesjsharp (talk) 10:15, 12 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

• I'm not involved in how the nominator here prefer to to display the two images. If you want a more matched pair, there already exists a color-tweaked version: File:Lion's mane jellyfish in Gullmarn fjord at Sämstad 8 - edited.jpg. I am unfamiliar with the special requirements for FPs here on en-WP, so you are welcome to nominate my photos but I'll stay out of the voting process. --cart-Talk 11:57, 12 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

• Done. I added a gap and changed the top image to its edited version per Charles and Cart. Bammesk (talk) 00:27, 13 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

• Looking at this again and reading Cart's notes here, the original version of the top image has more natural looking colors compared to the edited version. So I changed it back. The edited version is now an alternate. Pinging participants, so they can reassess their vote if needed, @Geoffroi, David Eppstein, and MER-C:, sorry for the inconvenience.
