  • Support as nominator --Tomer T (talk) 11:05, 10 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support As soon as I saw this, I just had to support it. Don't ask why. Dusty777 16:13, 11 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support Simple, effective, easy support... Certainly no need to "yak" on about reasons to support... ;-) gazhiley 13:53, 13 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak support I'd prefer a photo with less bokeh since parts of the animal's fur aren't sharp, but this is good enough. --Pine 04:28, 17 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support Looks good. — raekyt 05:49, 17 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose Though the composition is good, most of the animal except its head is out of focus. On technical grounds, I don't think this can be called one of the best of works in wikipedia. Yaks aren't all that uncommon that we can't manage a well shot, sharply focused picture of it. - DSachan (talk) 19:46, 18 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak Support While DSachan is right, I think that this photo is difficult enough to get location-wise that it excuses minor technical issues. Adam Cuerden (talk) 09:19, 19 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support per Adam's response to DSachan's criticism. Cat-fivetc ---- 13:06, 21 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
