Maria the chinchilla

I think this would be a good featuerd image, it's high-res, free-licence, good quality, and I also think Maria's pose (the chinchilla) is quite.... eye-catching.

• Oppose, I'm afraid. Very cute photo, but not up to featured quality in my opinion. There's a very heavy shadow on the right-hand side. Also the upper piece of wood is rather distracting. Stephen Turner (Talk) 13:04, 5 April 2006 (UTC)

• Oppose - Not a very striking/grabbing picture. --lightdarkness ^(talk) 14:49, 5 April 2006 (UTC)
• Oppose as per S. Turner. Not very focussed either. -- P199 15:22, 5 April 2006 (UTC)
• Oppose. While the pose is cute (those chinchillas can be quite adorable), it's not encyclopedic. Where's her tail? --Dante Alighieri | Talk 15:43, 5 April 2006 (UTC)
• Oppose as the owner of a pair of chinchillas, strikes me more as snapshot quality than FPC quality. Jumping chinchillas are more fun ;) [1] chowells 23:52, 5 April 2006 (UTC)

• Oppose Nice chinchilla, but not featurable photography. The shadow, lighting, and composition leaves much to be desired. Certainly up to article quality, but not featured picture quality. NTK 03:44, 11 April 2006 (UTC)
