Wikipedia:Picture peer review/Seahorse Skeleton

Appears in Seahorse. Nominating because I think it is very imfomative and good image quality. Digon3 23:58, 7 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not really sure what bothers me about this image. Maybe its just that I don't like seeing dried out dead seahorses, but I hope it's a more sophisticated analysis than that. The image simply doesn't look very sharp to me. Maybe it's the caption; a "skeleton" doesn't include a dried eye, and this specimen certainly includes a dried eye. I'm sorry I don't have more constructive comments. Enuja 18:55, 8 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

If its not a skeleton, then I have no idea what to call it. Digon3 19:53, 8 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure either, but I agree that 'skeleton' doesn't seem right. It's not mummified is it? --jjron 09:36, 10 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The pose looks awkward. Seahorses are normally photographed with a forward lean - check the other images in the article. This is largely because this is the orientation in which they swim. This fella is too vertical; in fact, if anything, it's leaning backwards. Can you reshoot, or in fact just tilt the image since it won't affect the background anyway? --jjron 09:36, 10 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

OK, it is now tilting forward. Digon3 20:15, 10 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
