  • I couldn't resist trying to clean up such a nice pic. It'd probably be best if you uploaded a much less compressed version from your camera; this one looks really artifacty. I'll support either version, though. -- BRIAN0918  15:25, 26 Mar 2005 (UTC)
    • Thanks Brian for your edit. I've uploaded the original, but the jpeg quality on that isn't too impressive as my camera isn't all that great. If you want to waste any more time on this pic here is the original Original Meadow Foxtail grass head
  • Oppose I do not find this any of beautiful, striking, shocking, impressive, titillating, fascinating, or in short just brilliant. Since these are the criteria... Denni 18:40, 2005 Mar 26 (UTC)
  • Support. I like the detail in the grass stem. Very instructive. Enochlau 01:09, 27 Mar 2005 (UTC)

  • Oppose. Nothing special. ed g2stalk 14:33, 29 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • Oppose Just not striking - Adrian Pingstone
  • Support original version. Looks dull as dishwater until you look at the high-res version. Lupin 22:49, 2 Apr 2005 (UTC)
