Weak oppose. Sharp, but a lot of the subject is hidden behind the dust. I prefer Image:M1-A1 Abrams 1.jpg, on the M1 Abrams article. It looks a little oversaturated, but at least you can see the entire thing. --Tewy 02:04, 22 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- I thought about your suggested image, but I thought the tank looked a little too beat up. I choose this one from the remaining pics since the view is unconventional; most tanks are photographed with the turret facing forward, not off to one side.

oppose, too obscured by dust to show most of the tank, not enough going on for an action shot--I'd want to see it firing or going over some obstacle that shows off its abilities. Night Gyr (talk/Oy) 03:20, 22 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- It is going over an obstacle: that is a hill in the foreground. As for action, is this more along the lines of what you were looking for? TomStar81 (Talk) 04:27, 22 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. Most of the tank is obscured. Even the alternate image is not good enough as the blast is very distracting. — Ambuj Saxena (talk) 19:10, 22 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. Not particularly good quality, dull colors, composition distracting, and too muh dust. NauticaShad e s 07:45, 23 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. There is too much dust, and too much of the tank is obscured. - jlao ⁰ ⁴ 02:54, 30 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
