The entire picture is basically the background. I uploaded a cropped version to illustrate my point here. If it is cropped to just show the subject, then it is too small for FP. Also, the text looks grainy, and it blends in with the background.
444:
What do you have against backgrounds? :-) I think it add some kind of peace to the picture. The motive looks isolated and small, which I think is the point, but also somehow more important. If the picture was in the

is what we're calling weird now? ;-) Sadly the picture is a little on the small side (especially the subject in the center). Can you comment on the colors? Bad whitebalance or was it really orange-yellow?--
467:
That was not what I said. I usually prefer when all unnecessary objects are croppet out, but every picture should be considered individually. Maybe we can just agree that we disagree on this one?

They were generally when the standards were lower, or you had to restrict image size because of server limitations. I have not seen one this size get through since I have been here. --

Not stunning or captivating, and doesn't do much for the article, either. If it was a electron microscope shot of Gen:1 engraved on a pinhead, well, maybe then... ;-) --
164:
That isn't clear, at all, and the background is grainy. The background could be completely blurred using
Photoshop and it wouldn't diminish the quality of the egg...
582:
293:
I've uploaded a new version that I think addresses some of the concerns here (background problems, graininess, coloring/contrast changes as well). Compare
17:
334:, but I like it, including the colors. I don't know much about the subject, but I guess the composition with the small egg somehow supports it.
525:
I like the picture, but I'm not sure it adds to much to the
Genesis article. Perhaps if it were under some form of art, it would be stronger.

New version still does not address the question of color temperature. And the egg still has a low pixel count.--

So all we have to do to a small picture, is to add an overly large background, and it will get featured? --
172:
513:. Not such a great image. Also, at least as importannt, it does not add significantly to the article.
