Eumerues feae[edit]

Original - Female Eumerus feae. App 6mm long. Pictured in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania
Reason
Good quality, and EV. Though in only one stub article, there are no other high res images of the species available and the info in the stub is the sum of all the info I could get on it from the web.

  • Support. Good detail and composition. It looks like a baby with big eyes like that :-). Only 6mm? How are you able to capture it with such resolution? Are you using extension tubes? Just wondering.. Diliff | (Talk) (Contribs) 16:06, 23 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
    • Nah, I haven't got tubes yet. Most are just shot at 1:1 and are cropped with very little downsampling, viewed at almost 100% zoom. --Muhammad(talk) 17:15, 23 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support. It's really amazing that you can get such high quality shots of such tiny subjects. J Milburn (talk) 22:14, 23 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support Very nice for such a tiny subject. SpencerT♦Nominate! 15:01, 25 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support Nice shot - there's some easily correctable noise in the background which should be fixed in an edit --Fir0002 05:36, 29 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support Hopfully i will undergo the change when you drop your flash away. It would be much nicer with a more softer light - bringing the animal'a plasticity come to light. Focus is good. --Richard Bartz (talk) 22:58, 29 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
    • Dar es Salaam is way too windy just now for natural light shots, I am forced to use flash to get a good shutter speed. --Muhammad(talk) 06:36, 30 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
      • The max for a flash is 1/200 on your cam but your shutter speed could be much higher - I can reach 1/320 with 400 ISO and f/10 and on that day it was very windy, too. Anyway if you love your photongun maybe try less powerful flashing, through a diffuser and sideways. --Richard Bartz (talk) 10:51, 30 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
