A glass of beer

Great picture. Makes me want to have a pint of beer!

  • Nominate and support. - Richard W.M. Jones 13:06, 30 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • The perfect reflection is a little disconcerting, otherwise great photo. -- Rmrfstar 15:05, 30 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • The 'head' is too large (the froth part). Seems to be over one third 'head'? The glass isn't typical of one used in a bar but if a beer were served like that to a typical customer it'd be referred back to the bartender. Subject as well as the picture quality matter as it is a picture of a glass of beer. Whitehorse1 01:26, July 31, 2005 (UTC)
I've had beer served to me in this way in Amsterdam, where that is apparently quite normal (or I'm a foreigner abroad and didn't know any better). In the UK of course this would not be tolerated! Richard W.M. Jones 09:19, 31 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support, great photo. --Benna 02:37, 31 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • It's quite normal in continental Europe. But as usual the UK has differents standards ;-) Ericd 23:08, 31 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose - Reflection distracting, head too thick. Oska 03:01, August 1, 2005 (UTC)
  • Support- the reflection adds a nice touch. As for everyone else, this is comment only time. vote after its been moved into the voting section. --ZeWrestler Talk 02:42, 2 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak Support Good photo but too low res for today's standards --Fir0002 09:23, August 3, 2005 (UTC)
  • Support the thick head actually makes it easier to see it. - Mgm|(talk) 01:24, August 4, 2005 (UTC)
  • Support. Good job on the lighting. I wonder if the reflection is natural though, or whether it was added in Gimp/Photoshop. If it's natural, excellent job on the lighting. --MarkSweep 05:52, 5 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Mmmmmbeer Couldn't resist, and it wasn't taken. Support. Denni 03:31, 2005 August 6 (UTC)
  • Support. Nice lighting, makes the beer glow! Enochlau 13:16, 6 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Update: I'm slightly worried about the origin and real copyright status of this photo. I have asked commons:User:Aurevilly for clarification on his talk page, but he may be on holiday and I haven't heard back yet. What's the procedure for this? Richard W.M. Jones 15:00, 6 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
On further inspection, looks like this photo was uploaded by a different commons user, commons:User:Milesteg, who is perhaps the same as meta:User:Milesteg. Richard W.M. Jones 15:04, 6 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support looks nice. =Nichalp «Talk»= 18:44, August 6, 2005 (UTC)
  • Support. I'm thirsty now. --ScottyBoy900Q 02:50, 8 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose. Nothing special, annoying reflection. Not a great illustration of anything. — David Remahl 10:39, 8 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose. The reflection is disconcerting. -- Rmrfstar 14:18, 8 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose. Boring. -Lommer | talk 02:24, 12 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose. Reflection is too distracting. - Bevo 11:42, 12 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support. Head is a little large for my liking, but the picture is destinctly better than the average - perhaps it could also illustrate Short measures. I assume the photograph is by User:MilesTeg. Does anyone know which wiki he hangs out on? -- Solipsist 20:40, 12 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose. Not special or interesting. The reflection is irritating.- Meamcat 11:42, 12 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
