A beautifully framed and vivid image. The foreground is sharply in focus with the background obscured in a very professional fashion. Andman8 03:29, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

  • question I'm not much of a drinker, but would the canonical stem-and-saucer style margarita glass not be a more "encyclopedic" illustration of the drink? Debivort 05:32, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

Weak Support Image certainly meets criteria, however the caption leaves a little to be desired. Krowe 06:06, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

  • weak oppose The thumbnail looks like some steaming algal culture... - Lycaon 07:11, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Oppose The pic has a lack of contrast, look at the top of the drink where it's too dark and "lifeless" - Adrian Pingstone 08:28, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Weak oppose The salt at the top doesn't look too great. Also, as said above, the "stereotype" margarita glass might be more encyclopedic. Overall, as per above, the image lacks contrast. Joe 09:09, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
  • weak oppose Even though I took this photo, I'm hoping this isn't an example of the best we have. Firstly, it was just a silly snap shot while I was bored waiting for our appetizers. About the last thing I was thinking of at the time was technical merits. Secondly, a real margarita isn't lime green like that. As to the stem-and-saucer glasses, they are about the opposite of "canonical". Maybe they do it that way in Des Moines or something, but not down here where real margaritas come from. Bottomline, I clearly need to take a better margarita photo for the article. I've known this for a while, but now I'm finally shamed into it. Thank you. I suppose.--y6y6y6 15:10, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Oppose Lacks novelty or "wow" value. Topic is too ordinary, everyday. Also the salt makes it look like something dirty or infested especially when viewed in thumbnail. Sorry. --Coppertwig 13:10, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Oppose Pingstone said 'lifeless' and I think that sums it up. When I have a mixed drink in front of me, on a sunny Bermuda beach, it sparkles and shimmers and makes my mouth water. My mouth ain't waterin'. --Bridgecross 14:57, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Weak Oppose Although a nice picture of a margarita, it isn't that inspiring. It's quite plain. S h a r k f a c e 2 1 7 20:31, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Strong Oppose - Yuck, no way. It's not an encyclopedic image of a margarita; they rarely look like that even in cheap American Mexican restaurants where the table comes with crayons to draw on... --Iriseyes 00:07, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Weak oppose. It's really not that bad of a shot, but for FP it just needs something more. I think the above comments have pretty much summed it up for me. --Tewy 01:38, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Weak oppose yeah basically it is kind of uninteresting. Arjun 18:20, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Oppose Maybe the "stereotypical" margarita glass with cleaner salting and some warm, bold lighting in front of a backdrop, but not just sitting on a counter somewhere. It's hard to be encyclopedic with drinks since it's impossible to tell what's actually in the drink --frothT 07:54, 14 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Oppose Looks a bit dull in color to me. --Tohru Honda13TalkSign here 23:00, 14 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Oppose. Per froth. NauticaShades 14:16, 15 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Oppose- that's seriously not a sample from a river with some ice cubes and a lime? Looks even worse at full size. NO. JorcogaYell! 04:32, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
    • Please remember to keep your comments civil. Wikipedians went to the effort of taking an nominating the image so let's respect that. Debivort 05:16, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
      • I wasn't trying to be uncivil. If that was uncivil, I apologize. JorcogaYell! 12:44, 17 January 2007 (UTC)
        • Well, it seems you were either assuming they called river water a drink - which is assuming bad faith, or you were being really sarcastic. In either case ... no worries though. Debivort 21:14, 17 January 2007 (UTC)
          • That was sarcasm.:) JorcogaYell! 02:36, 18 January 2007 (UTC)
