- I don't know if I can vote but this object is a good memory for me who had the opportunity to hold it in my hand. It is a common object that surprised me with the finesse of the work and the intelligence of the amalgamation of heterogeneous materials. In this object there is no unnecessary detail. --Archaeodontosaurus (talk) 19:16, 24 October 2020 (UTC)
- Archaeodontosaurus, you can vote, image creators often vote on their own images. Bammesk (talk) 19:38, 24 October 2020 (UTC)
- Comment – Archaeodontosaurus, I think this other image of yours has a good chance of passing an FP nom if the crop wasn't so tight. How about adding say for example 100 pixels of black area to each side? Bammesk (talk) 14:58, 25 October 2020 (UTC)

- Support Thank you it seems to me that there are only gentlemen here ...--Archaeodontosaurus (talk) 19:44, 24 October 2020 (UTC)
- who could possibly argue with a man with a harpoon, Didier. Charlesjsharp (talk) 10:20, 25 October 2020 (UTC)
- Support but with suggestion : Somehow divide the image (with white horizontal line?) so that it is immediately apparent that it's the same harpoon twice, not two harpoons. --Janke | Talk 11:32, 25 October 2020 (UTC)
- @Janke: I added this argument in the caption title. --Archaeodontosaurus (talk) 19:39, 25 October 2020 (UTC)
- Support. —David Eppstein (talk) 17:37, 25 October 2020 (UTC)
- Comment - This image is very disorienting to me. It seems to be two harpoons floating in space with shadows going in different directions. And if they are both the same harpoon, how are they sharing the same background? It makes my head spin trying to figure out what I'm actually looking at. Kaldari (talk) 19:14, 26 October 2020 (UTC)
