For me its too shadowy on the cap and too bright on the stalk. Also, the photo is very dark on the upper left corner at the thick tree trunk in the background, and lower third at the dirt in the foreground. However, I don't know enough about photography to be able support or oppose. :/ Matthewedwards : Chat 03:49, 21 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose I can see that the lighting is meant to make the mushroom look menacing, but having the stalk very bright and the cap very dark is just wierd. Wackywace ^{converse | contribs} 10:25, 21 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose per Matthewedwards and Wackywace. Papa Lima Whiskey (talk) 11:02, 21 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. To be fair, the cap of this species is darker than the stem, but I'm not convinced that this is feature worthy photography. Sorry. J Milburn (talk) 12:10, 21 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
