  • Support as nominator --Tomer T (talk) 12:42, 25 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support - Top of the creature is a little OOF, but not to the point of being a deal-breaker Crisco 1492 (talk) 15:03, 25 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support although I don't prefer a top view in such cases. I think we have to capture a subject how we see them; so from a side or with some inclinations. Less chance that we lean above and stare flat on it. Just my thoughts in an artistic point of view. - Jkadavoor (talk) 04:47, 26 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
    • Just a comment: these caterpillars like stinging nettles, so if you encounter them in a field of nettles you are very likely to view them from above and not from the side :-). --Quartl (talk) 09:38, 26 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
      • Wow! I understand; that plant is very common here. :) -- Jkadavoor (talk) 15:21, 26 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support Thanks for nominating my image. --Quartl (talk) 09:38, 26 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose Out of focus/soft and white balance is off. Not a deal breaker by itself, but the flash is harsh too. JJ Harrison (talk) 10:41, 30 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose per JJH. Can see the flash shadow in the bokeh. Clegs (engage in rational discourse) 08:59, 1 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
