  • Oppose - Correct picture but not good enough to reach the present insect FP bar. The caption is not adequate either, it should say something about the species. Why this small size? -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 21:45, 13 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
quite simple - I don't have an SLR camera that would allow me to deliver a higher resolution. But the resolution is still decent I'd say, best Quaoar10 (talk) 22:14, 13 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
We're voting on the image, not the creator, so there are no concessions I'm afraid. If image isn't good enough, it's just not good enough, we're not going to support it to be nice to you. Remember, we're not voting whether to keep the image or delete it - just whether to call it one of our best. —Vanderdeckenξφ 09:49, 14 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Sure, I don't expect any concessions?! It's just about the photo! 91.18.229.13 (talk) 11:39, 15 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose - The antennae gets out of focus. Same goes for some of the tips of the feet. A better angle would also be nice.
  • Oppose Not enough resolution on subject. Papa Lima Whiskey (talk) 03:36, 14 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose - nice subject and angle, but a bit small, noisy and extremities are out of focus. —Vanderdeckenξφ 09:49, 14 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
