This is a photo I took earlier this year in Cape Otway National Park, Victoria, Australia. I'm nominating it because I think its probably the best photo of a koala on wikipedia and is detailed and composed well enough to give you a very good idea of the anatomy, shape and the way it climbs. I have uploaded a newer (sharpened) version of it as I know you guys are hard on soft images :). See the image on commons for the original if you'd like here[1]. There is a previously featured photo of a koala here[2] but I feel this is a better image to represent a koala as it is a) in its natural habitat, not a zoo and; b) AWAKE! It is actually in the process of climbing from one tree to another which was a great chance to see the koala at eye-level.

He (she?) is looking directly into the camera, I love it! Will someone please bold my Support if the image has not been revised by the time it enters voting. -Lanoitarus 04:47, 6 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
I've bolded it as per your request. I will also support. Very sweet indeed, and it is great to see one that is awake. Raven4x4x 05:36, 7 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Support. It adds nicely to our collection of Koala pictures. -- Mgm|(talk) 10:05, 8 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
