Original – A cheetah at the Werribee Open Range Zoo

Good lighting, clearly shows the animal's side profile, already in the article and I just moved it to the lead spot for higher EV

  • Oppose Small size, and I'm not sure I like the back lighting. JJ Harrison (talk) 10:52, 31 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose I know this is a personal thing, and I'm not even sure if it's actionable, but I'm totally against featuring pictures of animals in captivity. I feel they should be presented in their natural habitat, and no matter how much a zoo or safari park tries to emulate it, it just isn't. Sorry. I love big cats, too.

  • Comment Since I haven't found a very good quality picture of a Cheetah, I've uploaded one I took myself. It's undownsampled 18mpix and yet quite sharp. I think it's worth being the lead picture of the Cheetah article and being nominated here as FP. What do u think? - Blieusong (talk) 21:32, 31 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Not quite the promised 18mpix :( because of cropping. Hope it's still big enough. - Blieusong (talk) 21:34, 31 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
