• Support as nominator --Herald talk with me 15:03, 4 March 2014 (UTC)
• Question This nebula already has a featured picture, and the current nomination is relegated to a gallery of sorts. Is there any reason to have this one as well? Mattximus (talk) 21:12, 4 March 2014 (UTC)

@Mattximus:, yep..the current fp is showing an entire nebula field but this one is just focusing on the nebula better than that and hence a deserving candidate. The description in that itself says it is a panorama of the nebula.Herald talk with me 07:30, 5 March 2014 (UTC)

@Mattximus:..Hope that now you have got it all cleared and will hit a support for the nomination..Herald talk with me 14:10, 11 March 2014 (UTC)

• Support we have had multiple FPs for a single biological species showing different behaviors or parts of the species and the same reasoning should apply here. --Pine^✉ 08:04, 7 March 2014 (UTC)
• Support for use in Nebula. Would suggest emphasizing that angle if this fails and you renom, it has very good EV there, but Carina Nebula's image use is a mess. Adam Cuerden ^(talk) 03:20, 14 March 2014 (UTC)
