  • Oppose The flower is dirty, and it has damaged petals. It should be possible to find a nicer specimen.Shroomydan (talk) 23:35, 17 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose As per Shroomydan. AmericanXplorer13 (talk) 01:04, 18 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • I uploaded from Flickr an Alt (which I also retouched), although I neither support nor oppose. It also looks quite different, for some reason, although the author of the image claims that it is indeed Nymphaea alba. Purpy Pupple (talk) 08:50, 18 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose per Shroomydan. This species is common enough in many botanical gardens etc to want near perfection. Photographically well executed though. Noodle snacks (talk) 10:55, 18 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose per NS. Not sure about the alt- perhaps start a different nomination? It's a whole new photo in a different place... J Milburn (talk) 11:26, 18 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
